TEHRAN -- Iran has dismissed Germany’s call to reverse the death sentence for the ringleader of a U.S.-based terrorist group, stating that it will not seek permission to deliver justice regarding terrorists. On Wednesday, Iran’s Supreme Court upheld the death penalty for Jamshid Sharmahd after finding no reason or evidence to reverse the ruling. Germany’s Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock urged Tehran to reverse the verdict, calling it “completely unacceptable.” Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani criticized Germany’s “meddlesome approach,” stating that Iran would never seek permission to confront terrorism and implement justice. Kanaani warned that such positions “encourage terrorists” and “promote terrorism” worldwide, and urged German officials to end their “operation to encourage terrorists.”
