Iranian Resistance supporters rally across European cities on March 31 to condemn executions of MEK political prisoners in Iran.

March 31, 2026 — Supporters of the Iranian Resistance held coordinated rallies across several European cities on March 31 to condemn the execution of four political prisoners affiliated with the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK in Qezel Hesar Prison: Babak Alipour and Pouya Ghobadi, Mohammad Taghavi and Akbar Daneshvarkar

In Oslo, demonstrators gathered in front of the Iranian regime’s embassy, where Mr. Parviz Khazaei, the representative of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) in Nordic countries, addressed the crowd. He strongly condemned the executions, describing them as a brutal crime aimed at silencing dissent and instilling fear among the population.

A similar protest took place in The Hague, Netherlands, where supporters of the Iranian Resistance, joined by Kurdish compatriots, rallied outside the Iranian embassy. Participants expressed solidarity with the executed prisoners and denounced the regime’s escalating use of capital punishment against political opponents.

In Stockholm, protesters assembled in front of the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, voicing outrage over the executions and calling for urgent international action. Demonstrators emphasized that such acts reflect the regime’s deepening crisis and fear of organized resistance.

Meanwhile, in Gothenburg, Sweden, Iranian Resistance supporters held a parallel gathering, echoing the same demands for accountability and justice. Protesters highlighted the growing wave of executions as a sign of the regime’s desperation in the face of increasing domestic unrest.

In Paris, demonstrators gathered in front of the French National Assembly, condemning the executions and urging European lawmakers to adopt a firmer stance against the Iranian regime. Participants stressed that continued silence by the international community emboldens further human rights violations.

Across all cities, protesters honored the four executed political prisoners—two executed on March 30 and two others on March 31—describing the executions as a deliberate attempt to suppress rising social unrest and dismantle organized resistance.

Participants called on European governments and the broader international community to take decisive action to halt executions in Iran and to hold the regime accountable for its crimes. They warned that failure to act risks enabling further atrocities against political prisoners.

Demonstrators underscored that executions are being used as a tool of repression and intimidation, but ultimately reveal the regime’s weakness and fear of the Iranian people’s demand for freedom.

Background:
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), strongly condemned the executions of Babak Alipour and Pouya Ghobadi, describing them as evidence of the regime’s fear and desperation in the face of growing public unrest and expanding support for resistance movements.

She stated that carrying out such executions, particularly amid external pressures, reveals that the regime views the Iranian people and organized resistance as its primary threat. Rajavi emphasized that those executed, along with Mohammad Taghavi and Akbar Daneshvarkar, represent enduring symbols of sacrifice and steadfast resistance who refused to yield under pressure.

Calling the executions a grave crime, she urged the United Nations, its member states, and human rights organizations to take immediate and concrete action to prevent further executions. She stressed the need for practical measures, including holding Iranian officials accountable and increasing diplomatic pressure, warning that continued inaction could lead to more loss of life among political prisoners.
