Dr. Soraya Fallah on Iran-Int Tv on Honor Killing in Iran




 

- 

-- در این مصاحبه کوتاه بولتن خبری، با توجه به گزارش سازمان حقوق بشری هه‌نگاو، اعلام شده که در گزارشی تازه، حداقل ۵۲ مورد زن‌کشی در شهرهای مختلف ایران در شش ماه نخست امسال رخ داده است. این تعداد بالای زن‌کشی‌ها و به ویژه کشته‌شدگان زنان و دختران به دست همسران، شریک‌های زندگی، و حتی پدر و برادران، نشان‌دهنده یک مشکل جدی و عمیق در جامعه است. مسئله زن‌کشی در ایران بخشی از آن فرهنگی و بخشی ناشی از مردسالاری و ضعف قوانین حاکم در جامعه است. از یک سو، برخی افراد - هم زنان و در بین مردان - در جامعه از یک فرهنگ با باورها و ارزش‌هایی فرهنگی رشد کرده‌اند که زنان را به عنوان وسیله‌ای برای حفظ "ناموس" خانواده و جامعه می‌دانند و در نتیجه در برابر آن‌ها حقوق زنان را کم‌تر ارج می‌نهند.

 

حکومت اسلامی با تصویب قوانین نابرابر و اجرای آن‌ها، زمینه‌هایی را فراهم کرده است که افراد با انگیزه‌های نادرست مذهبی یا فرهنگی، به انجام جنایات ناموسی و زن‌کشی ترغیب شوند. اشاره کردم به ماده ۶۳۰ قانون مجازات اسلامی، بنا بر قانون مجازات اسلامی در جمهوری اسلامی ایران مجازات «قتل نفس»، «قصاص» است،‌ اما مطابق ماده ۶۳۰ قانون مجازات اسلامی، «هرگاه مردی همسر خود را در حال زنا با مرد اجنبی مشاهده کند و علم به تمکین زن داشته باشد، می‌تواند در همان حال آنان را به قتل برساند و در صورتی که زن مکره باشد، فقط مرد را می‌تواند به قتل برساند.»

این نمایانگر تبلیغ تبعیض جنسی و ایجاد احساس ناامنی در زنان است. این قانون، عدم تمایل به پیگیری دقیق و مؤثر از جرایم زن‌کشی را ترویج می‌دهد و نشان از توجیه ضرورت وجودی خود حکومت در این مسئله دارد، که باعث افزایش زن‌کشی‌ها و ایجاد حس ناامنی در جامعه می‌شود.

"In this short news bulletin interview, with reference to the report by Hengaw Human Rights Organization, it has been reported in a recent update that there have been at least 52 cases of femicide in various cities across Iran in the first six months of this year. The high number of femicides, particularly the killings of women and girls by their husbands, life partners, and even fathers and brothers, highlights a serious and deep-rooted issue within society. The problem of femicide in Iran is a combination of cultural factors and the influence of patriarchy, not to mention the weakness in the enforcement of existing laws. On one hand, certain individuals, including both women and men, have been brought up in a culture with beliefs and cultural values that regard women as a means to preserve the 'honor' of the family and society, resulting in a diminishing of women's rights.

 

 

The Islamic government, by passing and enforcing discriminatory laws, has created conditions where individuals with misguided religious or cultural motives are encouraged to commit honor killings and femicides. I referred to Article 630 of the Islamic Penal Code, under which, in the Islamic Republic of Iran, the punishment for murder is "qatl" (homicide) or "qisas" (retaliation). However, according to Article 630 of the Islamic Penal Code, "whenever a man observes his wife in the act of intercourse with another man and has knowledge of her consent, he can kill them both at the same moment, and if the woman is coerced, he can only kill the man."

 

This reflects the promotion of gender discrimination and the instigation of a sense of insecurity among women. This law not only confirms the reluctance to thoroughly and effectively pursue femicide crimes but also indicates the government's justification for its existence, resulting in an increase in femicides and the fostering of a sense of insecurity within the society.
