Delara Darabi was an Iranian woman executed after being accused of murdering her father's female
cousin and stealing her gold together with her boyfriend. She was convicted for murder and theft by
the Iranian Supreme Court and was executed after five years imprisonment. She was 17 years old when
the murder took place. Her boyfriend was 19 years old at
the time of the murder and is serving a 10 year prison sentence for the crime.
Delara spent five years in jail after her conviction. She initially confessed, but later recanted.
She claimed her boyfriend, Amir Hossein, persuaded her to confess by convincing her that he would be
executed (as she would not have been; being a minor).
On Death Row, Delara having developed a love of painting at an early age completed several works
that depicted her incarceration. As well painting became her refuge from psychological torment of
incarceration and her way of asserting her innocence. In confinement she also wrote poetry; among
her work is the poem entitled "Prison"; a highly sophisticated psychological and philosophical work
on prison. A collection of her art
was displayed at an exhibition in Tehran by supporters campaigning to release her. Delara's lawyer,
Abdolsamad Khoramshahi, had appealed against the sentence, arguing that her conviction had been
based solely on her confession and that her trial had failed to consider vital evidence.
SWEET DELARA YOU´RE NOT ALONE
Sweet Delara, you´re not alone, many of us around the world who are with you. Everyone knows about your innocence, you are a victim of the wicked rule of Ayatollahs in Iran, they are genocidal, they will pay the price for their iniquity in front of God, and you will be resurrected to the life again. You are not the only one killed by this wicked regime. Delara, I cannot tell you rest in peace because in front of you is the life, because you will return to life and you will have too much work to do. Like us when we die, we will back to life again and we will see you right there, is our real hope.. from the true God Jehova...
i cannot not believe things like this still go on in 2days world it is to sick to even think about especially wen they had no evidence rip x
Letter From Heaven
To my dearest family, some things I would like to say. But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay. I'm writing this letter from heaven. Here I dwell with God above. Here, there's no more tears of sadness. Here is just eternal love. Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight. Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night. That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through, God picked me up and hugged me and he said, " I welcome you, It's good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone. As for your dearest family, They'll be here later on. I need you here badly, your part of my plan. There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man." God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do. And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you. And when you lie in bed at night, the days chores put to flight. God and I are closest to you in the middle of the night. When you think of my life on earth, all those loving years. Because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears. But do not be afraid to cry, it does relieve the pain. Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain. I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned, If I were to tell you, you would not understand. But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over. I am closer to you now, than I ever was before. There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb, But together we can do it by taking one step at a time. It was always my philosophy and I would like it for you too, That as you give unto the world, the world will give to you. If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain, Then you can say to God at night, " My day was not in vain." And now I am contented that my life was worthwhile. Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile. So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low, Just lend a hand to pick them up, as on your way you go. When you're walking down the street and you've got me on your mind, I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind. And when it's time for you to go from that body to be free. Remember you're not going... you're coming here to me. By Anon xx Sent With Love xx
