12 Jundullah terrorists to be executed

Iran will execute 12 Jundullah members who were involved in terrorist activities at the behest of the terror group's notorious ringleader Abdolmalek Rigi.

"Sistan Baluchestan's revolutionary and appellate courts have ordered the execution of 12 members of the Jundullah terrorist group on charges of terrorism. One member of the group has been sentenced to five years of imprisonment in a remote town," the Chairman of Sistan and Baluchestan's Justice Department Ebrahim Hamidi, told the ISNA news agency in Zahedan on Saturday.

Hamidi added that among the charges leveled against the defendants were the responsibility for the killing of 22 people in the Tasuci incident, setting up armed roadblocks on Chabahar road, kidnapping foreign nationals, and carrying out armed robberies.

Abdolhamid Rigi - the brother of Jundullah Leader Abdolmalek Rigi - who is among the convicted had told Press TV in an interview that "since 2003, Jundullah members have masterminded fifty to sixty terrorist operations, including mass murder, hostage takings, bombings, raids, car thefts, and other acts of sabotage against civilians and the government."

"I was under strict orders to take part in most of these missions," he explained, while adding that he killed at least four innocent civilians with his own hands in one particular raid.

He asserted that if he had refused to conform to his brother's orders he would have been faced with serious consequences. "I would be labeled as a traitor and therefore condemned to death."

Abdolhamid Rigi was arrested by Pakistani forces and handed over to Iranian officials early last year.

Jundullah is a Pakistan-based terrorist group comprised of some members of the Baluch ethnic minority. The terrorist group is closely affiliated with the al-Qaeda.

And all of this controversy circles me
And it seems like the media immediately points a finger at me
So I point one back at 'em
But not the index or the pinky or the ring or the thumb
It's the one you put up when you don't give a ****
When you won't just put up with the bull**** they pull
Cause they full of **** too

Whats the Iranian method of excecution?

I agree, good riddance.

@Howitz, they hang them by the testis
