Family of Iranian Twins Appeals to UN After Death Sentence and Decades-Long Prison Terms

The family of Iranian twins Taraneh and Romina Rahimi has appealed to the United Nations after one sister received a death sentence and the other decades in prison over anti-government protests. Relatives say the women were tortured, held in isolation and forced to confess to charges they deny. The sisters are among 16 defendants prosecuted in Isfahan. Their case has drawn international concern as Iran intensifies executions and prosecutions against protesters, while their family seeks intervention to prevent further punishment.
