Catherine Ashton, the European Union’s High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs, called on Iran on Tuesday to halt the execution of five members of the country’s Ahwazi minority. Ashton said she was concerned about reports the five men had not received a fair trial and had been forced to confess.
