The cemetery is located next to several cemeteries belonging to the religious minorities of Armenians, Baha\u2019is, and Hindus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Khavaran consists of two parts. In a section near the main entrance, the bodies of those executed in the 1960s were sometimes buried in solitary graves. In the other part of Khavaran, where there are no signs or tombs, the victims of the 1988 massacre were buried en masse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A group of families of political prisoners went to Khavaran when they learned of the massacre and the mass burial of their children and tried to find their children\u2019s bodies, who were confronted with heartbreaking scenes of bodies being buried underground. Only a few photos of the incident were sent out of Iran for information, and other documents are still missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More than three decades have passed since the national tragedy of the killing of Iranian political prisoners in the summer of 1988.
