Iran executed in public three men convicted of involvement in a deadly mosque bombing in the southeast of the country, the official IRNA news agency reported yesterday.
"Three people convicted of being involved in the recent terrorist bombing in Zahedan were hanged in public on Saturday morning," IRNA said.
The news agency also reported that the men were executed at a location close to where the bombing had taken place.
A provincial official said on Friday that the people behind the bombing were hired by the United States, an accusation Washington rejected.
