Justice in Iran

That this House takes note of the sermon delivered at Tehran University on 18th May by Ayatollah Musavi-Ardebili, in which he stated that the prescribed punishment for homosexual acts by men or women was execution by decapitation, or being thrown off a mountain or being burnt alive; and hopes that Iran will immediately repudiate such mediaeval barbarities and return to modern civilisation.
