An Iranian judge yesterday sentenced a 24-year-old man to 1 million years imprisonment for possession of child pornography.
Mohammed
Kenare was sentenced Wednesday morning by a local judge who in his
ruling held that possession of child pornography (video) is an act that
could only be committed by a despicable and satanic person and that he
(Kenare) should be locked up "for as much years as the devil should be
locked up".
The
move was seen as a lenient move by some international political
analysts who said the sentencing (which logically means life) is a
lesser one compared to the maximum death penalty such an offense would
have carried at any Iranian upper court.
Mahmud Zakari, a clerk
of the court told local radio that although the sentencing could be
appealed, it is unlikely Kenare's lawyers will file for one.
Is this really justice?
