Iran's hanging of Reyhaneh Jabbari condemned
ran has gone ahead with an execution of a woman despite an international campaign urging a reprieve.
Reyhaneh Jabbari, 26, was hanged in a Tehran prison on Saturday morning. She had been convicted of killing a man she said was trying to sexually abuse her.
Jabbari was arrested in 2007 for the murder of Morteza Abdolali Sarbandi, a former intelligence ministry worker.
Human rights group Amnesty International said her execution was "deeply disappointing in the extreme".
Both the US State Department and British Foreign Office condemned the execution.
UK Foreign Minister Tobias Ellwood MP called on Iran to abolish the use of the death penalty.
"The UN noted that her conviction was allegedly based on confessions made while under threat. I urge Iran to put a moratorium on all executions," he said in a statement.
A campaign calling for a halt to the execution was launched on Facebook and Twitter last month and appeared to have brought a temporary stay in execution.
However, government news agency Tasnim said on Saturday that Jabbari had been executed after her relatives failed to gain consent from the victim's family for a reprieve.
