Execution in Iran under the Mullahs\u2019 regime continue<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While the whole world is moving towards abolishing executions<\/a> with decent speed, Khamenei\u2019s declining regime is moving in the opposite direction of evolution with incredible speed in executions. In the first six months of the Iranian year 1399(April to September 2020), they executed 136 prisoners in various prisons. Of these executed prisoners: 134 were men, and two were women. A prisoner executed in public. Also, there are the names of several children among those executed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, in disbelief, there are eight political prisoners<\/a> among those executed. The names of 8 political prisoners are Mostafa Salimi, Abdolbaset Dahani, Shahram Baygan, Hedayat Abdollahpour, Diako Rasoulzadeh, Saber Sheikh Abdullah, Mostafa Salehi<\/a>, and Navid Afkari<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These prisoners were hanged in various prisons:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Mostafa Salimi<\/strong>, in Saqez Central Prison on charges of \u201cMoharebeh\u201d(Fight against God) on April 2, 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Navid Afkari<\/strong>, in Shiraz Central Prison on charges of \u201cMoharebeh\u201d on September 12, 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dictatorship and execution of political prisoners<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The mullahs\u2019 falling dictatorship has shown its fear of society\u2019s growing protest movement by executing political prisoners<\/a>\u2014the dictator force to show his claws and teeth in times of crisis. That\u2019s why, in addition to all the executions, it has included nine political prisoners related to the uprising on its execution list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Amir Hossein Moradi<\/strong>, Greater Tehran Prison<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Saeed Tamjidi<\/strong>, Greater Tehran Prison<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Mohammad Rajabi<\/strong>, Greater Tehran Prison<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Hadi Kiani<\/strong>, Dastgerd Isfahan<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Mehdi Salehi Shahrokhi Qale<\/strong>, Dastgerd Isfahan Prison<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Mohammad Keshvari<\/strong>, Dastgerd Isfahan Prison<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Mohammad Bastami<\/strong>, Dastgerd Isfahan Prison<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Majid Nazari Kondari<\/strong>, Dastgerd Isfahan Prison<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Abbas Mohammadi<\/strong>, Dastgerd Isfahan Prison<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, to the youth whose sentences are issued and finalized, many other detainees, such as elite students, Ali Younesi and Amir Hossein Moradi<\/a>, and some other detainees, face death threats. We do not forget that 20 other political prisoners, mostly Sunni or Arab compatriots, have been sentenced to death in previous years and have been under execution for many years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Execution of children<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, In the first six months of this year, three children executed by the Mullahs\u2019 judiciary. These executed children are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Shayan Saeedpour was executed in Saqez Central Prison on charges of murder on April 21, 2020. He escaped from prison during the Saqr Central Prison riot and was re-arrested. He had an acute mental illness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Majid Esmailzadeh was executed in Ardabil Central Prison on April 18, 2020 on charges of murder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0 \u2013 Arsalan Yassini was executed in Urmia Central Prison on August 17, 2020, on charges of murder. He was tortured and forced to confess without committing murder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prisoners of ordinary crime<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During the first six months of 1399 Iranian year or April to September 2020, 128 prisoners executed on charges of ordinary and social crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These prisoners are generally portrayed in the state media as murderers, thieves, rapists, and drug dealers. But, the judiciary never answers why these criminals stole or sold drugs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Executed women<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Among the detainees arrested for ordinary crimes are two women. With an unknown last name, Mehri hanged in Mashhad prison on August 2, 2020, and Fereshteh executed on August 18. Iran regime is world\u2019s record holder of the executions of women<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, among the executed prisoners, two prisoners were executed for espionage and one prisoner for drinking alcohol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In conclusion, Among the executed prisoners, the execution of political prisoner Mostafa Salehi<\/a> and Navid Afkari<\/a>, wrestling champion, shocked the Iranian public and the world public opinion more than others. The anti-execution campaign launched on the eve of the execution of the two prisoners was unprecedented. For instance, artists, athletes, politicians, and the toilers all stood up to prevent the two men\u2019s criminal execution. But Khamenei proved to be too weak to retreat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Above all, the execution is the lever of the regime\u2019s survival. However, it seems destined that death sentences will become the hanging rope of a religious dictatorship.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
