Manchester, UK \u2013 April 17, 2025<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Manchester, UK \u2013 April 17, 2025:<\/strong> The Academics in Exile Association, aligned with the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK<\/a>), held a public bookstall and photo exhibition in Manchester to denounce the latest wave of executions in Iran.<\/p>\n
<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"89\" data-end=\"794\">The event also condemned the <a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/human-rights\/2024\/12\/urgent-action-required-six-political-prisoners-sentenced-to-death-in-iran\/67727\/\" rel=\"\">death sentences<\/a> recently issued against <a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/peoples-mojahedin-pmoi-mek-iran\/\" rel=\"\">PMOI<\/a>-affiliated prisoners and called for the immediate and unconditional release of all political prisoners. Held in solidarity with Iran\u2019s prisoners of conscience, the gathering responded to the alarming surge in torture and systematic executions carried out by the regime in the past week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"420\" data-end=\"840\">Participants used the exhibition to call on the UK government to designate Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (<a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/articles\/2023\/04\/irans-regime-irgc-a-state-sponsored-terrorist-organization\/44858\/\">IRGC<\/a> ) as a terrorist organization and to shut down the Iranian regime\u2019s embassy in London, labeling it a center of espionage and terror operations. Members of the Iranian diaspora in Manchester joined the call for international legal action against Iran\u2019s ruling authorities for crimes against humanity.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Manchester Exhibition Condemns Executions in Iran and Calls for Release of Political Prisoners - 2\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KYFjWN8kTvc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"420\" data-end=\"840\">Additionally, the academics called for justice, tougher sanctions on the regime, and recognition of the Iranian people\u2019s right to self-defense. The exhibition was well-received by a diverse audience in Manchester.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"420\" data-end=\"840\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72615\"
