In 2007, Taghizadeh, a licensed park ranger in the Dena mountain range in southwestern Iran, was arrested for manslaughter after a shooting incident involving five illegal hunters. http://en.irangreenvoice.com/content/3299
The death sentence was issued despite the fact that Taghizadeh had all required licences for carrying firearms and was returning fire after being shot at.
An Iranian official said the Court's seal of approval meant the ranger would be executed within the coming two weeks.
