Canadian resident sentenced to death for writing a computer program

Last week, the Iranian Supreme Court confirmed the death sentence for computer programmer Saeed Malekpour, whose photography program was used without his knowledge, to upload pornography to the internet.

Canadian resident Mr Malekpour was arrested while visiting his dying father in Iran during October 2008. He was held in solitary confinement in Tehran's Evin Prison for a year without charge, according to Amnesty.

when you are lucky enough to get the hell out of a shithole like Iran..... Do not EVER go back, under any circumstances.

The scumbag ayatollah whatsisname and little shit Ahmadinejad will probably now proceed to use this guy as yet another bargaining chip.
