An Iranian woman who was sentenced to death by stoning for adultery is to be hanged for murder instead, according to a human rights group.
The German-based International Committee Against Stoning said Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani is to be executed today.
"The authorities in Tehran have given the go-ahead to Tabriz prison for the execution of Iran stoning case," the group says on its website.
"It has been reported that she is to be executed this Wednesday, November 3."
