Iran hung a 26-year-old man for the second time on Wednesday months after a previous execution was stopped midway, Norway-based Iran Human Rights said. Ahmad Alizadeh was arrested in October 2018 on a murder charge, which he denied and claimed he confessed to under torture. The first execution in April was halted after the alleged victim's family suddenly shouted "forgiveness".
