We do not have official statistics on executions in Islamic republic of Iran because Iran does not disclose such stats and keep it secret. There is a common consensus that true figure is very much higher so Iranian authorities wouldn't publish it. According to Amnesty International records Iran after China carried out the most executions in the world.
