News in brief-
Nine years old girl is a child , do not punish her !

According to the Islamic Republic of Iran's law , the age of penal responsiblity for girls is nine years old and when a girl arrive at the age of nine will face the law like an adult, meaning will go to jail, will recieve lashes and even will be sentenced to death.According to the same law the penal responsibility for the boys is when they are fifteen years old. So the Islamic law in Iran is discriminatory between boys and girls and the law do not see any differences between a nine years old girl and a fourty years old woman. The only thing that we must add is that , if a nine years old girl did a crime punishable with death , first she will spend time in centre for correction & education until she fully arrive at the age of eighteen and then her sentence will be carried out and she will be executed.
