Iran Now Claims Christian Pastor Is Guilty of Rape…Not Apostasy (Death Sentence Still Stands)

Earlier this week, Iranian Pastor Yousef Nadarkhani’s lawyer told reporters that he was 95 percent sure that his client would be freed of the apostasy charges waged against him. But now, just days after it seemed like the case was headed in a favorable direction, the landscape has once again changed.
Now, authorities are claiming that Nadarkhani, who was initially sentenced to death over his Christian faith (read for more background information here), is actually guilty of rape — a newfound charge that most critics believe to be a fabrication. The accusation, critics say, will be used as an excuse to push forward with the pastor’s detainment and potential execution.
Below, find a Newsy video that provides background on the case (not including these latest charges of rape):
The Blaze has been covering Iranian Pastor Yousef Nadarkhani’s legal battle with the Iranian government since June. This latest development comes after Nadarkhani, who has been taken on a roller-coaster ride by the theocratic regime, repeatedly refused to repudiate his Christian faith.
Earlier this week, we were cautious in covering his lawyer, Mohammad Ali Dadkhah’s, optimism. Dadkhah claimed that he was 95 percent certain that the charges (along with the death sentence) would be thrown out. In light of Iran’s past track record, we wrote:
“…considering the lack of transparency in Iranian governance and the unpredictability of officials there, this potential for a favorable outcome may be optimistic.”
Fox News has more about the most recent allegations of rape and extortion that have been waged against the 32-year-old pastor:
Iran state media put out a stunning report Saturday claiming that imprisoned Christian pastor Youcef Nadarkhani is facing the death sentence for rape and extortion, not for apostasy and refusing to renounce his religion, as his lawyer, human rights groups and Western news media have reported.
“His crime is not, as some claim, converting others to Christianity,” the deputy governor of the Gilan province, Gholomali Rezvani, told Fars, the semi-official state news agency.
Beliefnet’s Rob Kerby adds more about yet another bizarre report coming from Iranian media:
A…report published on the Iranian government’s English-language website claimed that Nadarkhani was a Zionist and an extortionist, had been running a brothel and had a history of violent crimes.
Jordan Sekulow, the Executive Director of the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), says that his organization is trying to parse through the information that is coming from Iran’s state-controlled media.
“There’s been no mention of any other charges than apostasy in trial documents,” he says. According to documents that the ACLJ has translated, Nadarkhani was sentenced to hanging for “turning his back on Islam” and “converting Muslims to Christianity.”
Nowhere was there any mention of rape or of the “security-related crimes” Iran is now mentioning. A translated version of the initial ruling can be read here.
As the New York Daily News reports, critics dismiss these latest claims as trickery conducted by “officials who are notorious for trumping up charges against dissidents.” Those opposed to the regime, of course, believe that this latest claim by the Iranian government is simply an attempt to secure positive publicity for the Middle Eastern nation.
There’s no telling what will happen next, but if these latest charges stick, a death sentence may be imminent.

Posted on October 1, 2011 at 11:30pm@ A TRUE TEXAN => well said, I’ve been telling my family the same thing for years. Liberals believe that Socialism and Communism can work if properly implemented. They also believe that they are FAR more intelligent than anyone who has tried it in the past. Socialism and Communism fail for the exact same reason that Capitalism succeeds……GREED. Under Capitalism people always want more…..more money, more products, more services and that greed drives the system, competition ensures that only the sound business model will succeed. Only those companies that provide goods and services that people want will succeed. Under Socialism and Communism this same greed corrupts the system and causes it to fail. You cannot force tax payers to subsidize companies that don’t provide goods and services that people want. Inevitably you run out of peoples money and the system colapses. It’s really a very simple concept but arrogance can blind you to the obvious.

I just read a story where the family of a rape victim was refusing to “honor kill” their daughter because she was raped. I’ve read other stories where the rape victim gets stoned to death and the rapist goes on about his business with no punishment…..WHATS UP WITH THAT!!!
This is a bunch of crap from the court and they just want to “make an example” of this pastor.

COFemale “Hey when you are dictatorship what goes on in your country, you can make up charges out of thin air. This should send a clear message to the Socialist/Communist supporters, this could be you.”
Someone is going to have to explain what is sarcastic about any of this. Perhaps the joke is on you if you think this is sarcastic about anything. The first sentence from COFe is a simple statement of fact. The second sentence is also true, if when she says “this could be you” she means, you are the one in control who can lie about anything you want, they want that, they do that now, or, if she means, “this could be you” as in you are the one being lied about, that still is true, there is nothing sarcastic about that. And then my statement about Islam merely stated another true fact, people, even so-called Conservatives, think that America is so special (and I believe America is indeed VERY special, just not so special that it can overcome the Satanic evil of Islam which was created to destroy all manmade governments and laws) that Islam won’t do to us what it has done to every single other country it has spread in, except for Spain which after fighting for many centuries finally threw Islam out. In fact, twits today condemn Spain for that! And twits in Spain are NOW allowing Islam in again! The West is lost. People in the West don’t even know what sarcasm is. Sadly, the jok

Posted on October 2, 2011 at 2:09pmSnooop1e, your comment is what I typically hear from everyone who tries to argue in favor of communism. Here‘s what you don’t understand: capitalism does not fail because of greed, it succeeds because of it. Greed is a motivator for people to work to get what they want, because they want something for themselves. Earning something for yourself out of your personal choice to do so gives you so much more of a feeling of satisfaction and pride that you have tangible results for your labor. The only reason why capitalism today is failing in our country is because it is capitalism in chains. The current administration has every large and profitable corporation portrayed as evil and greedy, and they pass whatever additional regulations they can (under the guise of “progress”) to choke them out because ultimately they don’t believe that you deserve what you earn, and because they need to “spread the wealth around.” I don’t care how you slice it, communism would never work because of our innate human nature. If everyone gets everything for free, what motivation is there to work?

Posted on October 2, 2011 at 4:16pmPhoenix, you read Snooopie’s comment 180 degrees wrong. He said exactly what you did, although I would prefer to use Smith’s term of “enlightened self-interest“ rather than ”greed”. Greed is what Oliver Stone, a commited Marxist, used when he made a parody of Michael Milken in his Wall Street charcter Gordon Gecko. Gecko said “greed works”. But Milken said that enlightened self interest works. There is a difference. Greed is the human corruption of self-interest. But the genius of capitalism is that it works even when self-interst becomes greed because the spirtual motive is irrelevant.

Posted on October 1, 2011 at 10:07pmTime to round up some towels over here, say ten of them, and set up a public electric chair, perhaps on the site of the Ground Zero Mosque. Let’s make Islam, the phoney religion, illegal. Had enough of these criminals yet?
Vote O’Bama! Vote ALL criminal illegal aliens!

Posted on October 1, 2011 at 9:39pmThey need 4 witnesses to prove it by their own laws. I guess they will fabricate them also. Who will be the 4 witnesses? Whom did he rape? If the 4 witnesses don’t hold up in court the female who reported the rape will be stoned to death. What a strange and perverted culture!

Posted on October 1, 2011 at 9:36pmWell, under Sharia Law, there are supposed to be 4 witnesses before a woman can charge rape…….wonder where they will turn up from!!! What a crock of lies!

Posted on October 2, 2011 at 10:44pmSo, 4 brave souls can ‘witness’ a rape (stand by and watch, but do not help, maybe they just cheer and jeer it on)! Then the victim can file charges! Wouldn’t you think that 4 women or children could pull a rapist off his victim, much less, 4 grown men? Over here, I’d bet the 4 witnesses would put a stop to it, and beat the crap out of the perp in the process! Then, of course, there was the time I thought a woman was being ‘assaulted’ and asked if she needed help–the look on her face made it very clear that I was the intruder–it really happened on a New York street! I was so-o-o embarrassed, but would have felt worse if I hadn’t asked if eveything was ok!

Report Post »Well…It’s OK for the Muslim to rape his four wives,

Islamic Sharia Law smiles on that…

Posted on October 1, 2011 at 9:35pmIranian justice is no justice. He was tried for converting from Islam to Christianity. He was found guilty of that charge. He was sentenced on that charge. Now that the world has risen up against that they did a switch to say it was rape. They invented the charge to get around world public opinion. That is worse than if they had executed this innocent man for the original charge! This justice system is a terrorist system.
