Continuation of the ‘No to Execution Tuesdays’ Campaign in 56 Different Prisons in its 106th Week
More than three weeks have passed since the brutal massacre of people in the alleyways and streets of Iran and the detention of tens of thousands of defenseless citizens, yet large segments of the Iranian population remain in complete unawareness about the fate and condition of their loved ones. These actions by the repressive regime constitute state-sanctioned murder and enforced disappearance, for which the Supreme Leader is primarily responsible.
Many of the detainees are being tried secretly without the right to a fair trial and are at risk of heavy sentences and execution. Security agencies have threatened many independent lawyers, telling them they are not allowed to represent the detainees of the Dey (January) uprising.
We, the members of the ‘No to Execution Tuesdays’ campaign, call on all families of the detained and the victims to raise their voices and publicize the names of their loved ones. We also ask all honorable people and human rights, union, civil, and political activists to be the voice of the prisoners and recent detainees more than ever before.
The despotic regime is recklessly and hysterically carrying out executions, having hanged 123 individuals so far in the month of Bahman (since January 21) and more than 2,350 people since the beginning of the year 1404 (March 21).
The rightful protest of the Iranian people and the thousands of blossoming flowers-girls, boys, and children whose blood was unjustly shed by the bullets and axes of the ruling religious-fascist suppressors-ultimately led to the main perpetrator of this crime, the IRGC, being placed on the European Union’s terrorist list, which is a major step in the struggle of the Iranian people. This is something that has not only been the demand of the members of this campaign and all political prisoners but has also been the demand of all freedom-loving and equality-seeking people of Iran for many years.
