Cologne \u2013 August 29, 2026:<\/strong> Supporters of the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK<\/span><\/a>) held a rally and photo exhibition condemning executions carried out by the mullahs\u2019 regime and calling for an end to the death penalty. They urged the international community to take action to stop executions in Iran and condemned the execution of PMOI political prisoners, as well as protesters arrested in January 2026. The event also expressed solidarity with the\u00a0 \u201cNo to Executions<\/span>\u201d campaign<\/a>.<\/p>\n
