A member of Iran’s parliament said on Monday that the country has suspended a sentence of hanging for Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, the woman accused of adultery who was originally spared a stoning after an international outcry. In a letter to Brazil’s new president, the head of the Iranian parliament’s human-rights commission said Ashtiani’s hanging has been suspended due to pleas from her children. However, an Iranian judicial official said the comments were false, and there’s been “no change or development” in her sentence.
