Gothenburg, Sweden – September 9, 2025: Supporters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) gathered in Gothenburg to mark the 50th consecutive week of local participation in the global “No to Execution Tuesdays” campaign. The movement protests the Iranian regime’s escalating wave of executions and systematic repression.

This week’s rally marked the 85th consecutive week of protests by political prisoners across Iran. With the addition of prisoners from Sabzevar Prison, the campaign has now expanded to 52 prisons, reflecting a growing resistance movement and underscoring the urgent need for international attention and action.

Demonstrators strongly denounced the Iranian regime’s increasing use of the death penalty, calling for the immediate annulment of all death sentences and the unconditional release of political prisoners.

Freedom-loving Iranians in Gothenburg expressed support for Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), and her call to expand the “No to Executions” campaign globally.

The protesters demanded that the regime’s leaders be prosecuted for crimes against humanity in an international tribunal. They also urged the Swedish government to end its policy of appeasement toward Tehran and to formally designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization.

Finally, the demonstrators reaffirmed the Iranian people’s call for a democratic republic, rejecting both religious dictatorship and any return to monarchy. They stressed the importance of recognizing the Iranian Resistance and supporting the MEK Resistance Units inside Iran in their fight for freedom and justice.
