Hussein, what is the punishment for drug use in Iran.
i know drug traficking is death penalty, but does the amount have something to say?
for Opium:
1/ until 50g 3 million rials 50 slashs
2/ 50g - 500g 5-15 million rials 74 slashes
3/ 500g - 5kg 15 million to 60 million rials and until 5 years jail
(if the guy is good behavior he will leave after a year)
4/ 5 kg - 20 kg 60 - 200 million rials
5 -10 years jail
if you do it again => you double the sentence each time you repeat
4/ 20-100 kg 2 million per kg
if you repeat it, you can get the death penalty
5/ > 100 kg same as above with slashes
In park in Tehran it happened to see some drug trafic. When you go to the police say them "hey why you bother the girl who didn't put correctly her scarf but you didn't care aout this trafic" the policeman answers : "he would be freed tomorrow"
not only you pay for your sentence but the corruption is so important in Iran that some rich trafic persons pay the police the justice ...
I have an uncle who was in jail for a business reason (a dispute about a machine that he rent and the client stole him, but since the client had "relations" not only he never got the machine back but he went to jail)
well in jail he was with a guy doing trafic who was explaining he was only for a few days because he paid the police
