Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : Prosecutors announced the move on Tuesday as alarm grows over the potential for extensive use of the death penalty.
45% : Another 12 have been executed on charges of spying for Israel since a war in June between the two foes. UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Turk said it was "extremely worrying to see public statements by some judicial officials indicating the possibility of the death penalty being used against protesters through expedited judicial proceedings". IHR said it feared the Islamic republic "is seeking to conduct rapid trials without observing fair trial standards for detained protesters".
44% : This sharia law term is a capital crime in Iran and has been widely used in past death penalty cases.
