lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, last month in the city of Neka in Iran a 16 year-old girl accused of offences against chastity was publicly hanged from a crane. After sentencing her to death, the judge said that she had undressed in the court because she took her veil off. He insisted upon placing the rope around her neck himself. There are three more children aged 16 currently under sentence of death in Iran. The regime is waiting until they are 18 to carry out public executions. This is the utmost act of barbarism by a mullah regime that is taking the cultured and civilised people of Iran back to the stone ages. It has executed 120 000 people since it came to power. I hope that on behalf of all the Members of this House, Mr President, you will express our outrage to the Iranian ambassador to the EU. The execution of children, and indeed the death penalty, is something that we will not tolerate."@en1
