The planned execution of Erfan Soltani, a 26-year-old Iranian man arrested during recent protests, has been postponed, according to the Norway-based Hengaw rights group. Relatives of Soltani confirmed the delay, but the group emphasized ongoing and serious concerns for his safety. International attention has focused on the case, with warnings from non-governmental organizations and statements from Washington about the potential execution. Despite the postponement, rights advocates caution that Soltani's life remains at risk.
