Iran has executed two people who had been sentenced to death for blasphemy, the judiciary's news website Mizan reported on Monday, drawing an angry reaction from human rights group Amnesty International.
Yousef Mehrdad and Sadrollah Fazeli Zare were executed for crimes including blasphemy, insulting the religion of Islam, the prophet and other sanctities, Mizan reported.
The website reported that the two were running dozens of online anti-religion platforms dedicated to the hatred of Islam, the promotion of atheism and insults to sanctities.
