The Iranian government executes many innocent people and often political prisoners under the pretext of drug abusers, etc. Even when the drug abusers are executed, the intention is not to fight crime, since its the government and the IRGC that is behind all the drug smuggling. The real intention is to intimidate the public not to stand up against their repressive rule.
