There are 13 year old sex offenders. HOWEVER, the odds that this man actually is guilty is certainly in doubt. Pope John Paul 2 was reluctant to persue accusations of homosexuality, because it was used by the Communists as a political hammer on opponents.

The other possiblity - this individual was raped, and the Iranian regime is executing him for the crime of being a perpetrator.
