The U.S. government has called for the United Nations to condemn Iran's persecution of members of the Bahai faith. According to the Commission on International Religious Freedom, a revolutionary court has sentenced three members of the Bahai faith to death for unspecified anti-security acts three different times. Iran's supreme court overturned the charges after the first two arrests but the men have now been detained again and await execution. The Bahai faith claims 6.4 million members around the world and teaches that all religions lead to the path of truth.
Believers stress peace and the unity of all faiths.
