Khamenei acknowledged his responsibility and defended the massacre of political prisoners “With respect to executions, mass executions in Iran, have we banned capital punishment?
No. We in the Islamic Republic have capital punishment for those who deserve to be executed. Do you think we should give sweets to a prisoner who has connections with the activities of the Monafeqin who attacked the Islamic Republic’s borders? If his connection with that group is revealed, what should we do to him?
He is condemned to execution and we will execute him. We do not joke with this” (Tehran radio, 12 December 1988.)
