A death row prisoner in Iran is to be hanged for a second time once he 'becomes well again' after he survived an initial bungled execution.
The 37-year-old man named as Alireza M was 'put to death' in the Islamic regime's Bojnourd prison last Wednesday for drugs offences.
After 12 minutes, he was certified as dead and taken to the prison morgue.
But when his family went to collect his body the following day, they noticed he was still breathing and rushed him to hospital.
One family member told Iran's state-run media: 'When we were told the death sentence had been carried out, we went to collect his body to prepare for a memorial service.
'But when we went to the coroner's office we found him alive again, which made his two daughters very happy.'
Once officials were told Alireza M had survived, they put him under armed guard at the hospital to await a second execution.
A judiciary official told the state media: 'The verdict was the death sentence, and it will be carried out once the man gets well again.'

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
