UK, December 18, 2024: Freedom-loving Iranians and academics in Sheffield, supporting the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), organized a book and photo exhibition to protest the death sentences imposed on political prisoners linked to the PMOI and to support the “No to Executions” Tuesday Campaign advocating for Iranian political prisoners.
The organizers condemned the Iranian regime’s ongoing crimes against its people and expressed solidarity with the Iranian Revolution.
The event shed light on Iran’s dire human rights situation, with a particular focus on political prisoners facing execution. It also called for the immediate release of all political prisoners held by the mullahs’ regime.
The exhibition urged the UK government to officially designate the IRGC as a terrorist organization and to shut down the Iranian regime’s embassy, which is considered a hub for espionage and terror. Members of Sheffield’s Iranian community demanded the international prosecution of Iran’s leaders for crimes against humanity.
The Academics In Exile Association stated on Facebook:
“The Book Table and Exhibition of the Association of Academics in Exile in Sheffield City Center in Support of Political Prisoners as part of the ‘No to Executions’ Tuesday Campaign.”
Additionally, the academics advocated for justice, stricter sanctions against the regime, and recognition of the Iranian people’s right to self-defense. The exhibition received a positive response from a diverse audience in Sheffield.
