So, will they cut off his hand to send it to prison by itself? ?

If the errant hand had stolen the Iranian's phone in Iran it'd have been removed by now. 

You are wrong. No punishment of this kind in Iran. You confuse it with Saudi Arabia.

But yeah, death sentences and executions, sadly.

Its just a phrase like cowboys. Its idiomatic not literal.  To  think otherwise is just being pedantic

I guess you have found the simple answer to your question by now.
