Tehran: In Iran, 2 people belonging to Daesh have been hanged while 3 have been sentenced to life imprisonment for killing 15 people by shooting at Shah Chirag’s shrine last year.

According to the international news agency, Kazem Mousavi, head of the courts of Iran’s Fars province, said that these people have the right to appeal against the sentences.

Both the convicts who were sentenced to death had confessed their crime in the court. Both are of Tajik descent and linked to ISIS in Afghanistan, while one of the attackers was captured with injuries and died during treatment.

In this case, 3 more Tajik citizens have been sentenced to life imprisonment. All three were also trained from Afghanistan and worked for ISIS.

It should be noted that more than 1,000 citizens of Tajikistan have joined ISIS. Last month, a Tajik court sentenced a man named Pervez to life in prison for recruiting youths from the country to join ISIS.
