Rights groups warn of Tehran regime’s increasing use of executions to suppress dissent, with at least 600 this year
Human rights groups have raised the alarm over the growing number of death sentences and executions in Iran, after reports that a 23-year-old woman, Najmeh Amini, has been sentenced to death for blasphemy over a social-media post.
Amini, an accounting student, is being held in Vakilabad prison in the north-east city of Mashhad. She has been sentenced to more than 12 years in prison and death in separate cases heard by a revolutionary and a criminal court.
A source close to Amini’s family told the US-based Human Rights Activists in Iran (HRAI) that Amini was sentenced to death on charges of “sab ol-nabi” (insulting the prophet). She was reportedly arrested following online monitoring by Iran’s Cyber Police (Fata). The exact content of her posts has not been publicly disclosed.
This is the nonsense people say about violent rioters armed by the US and Israel with shotguns after they read TheGuardian
The onus is on the state not to kill people, not the people not to act up.
If the state starts executing political dissidents, it creates more political dissidents.
You cannot scare people into being how you want, en masse, forever.
It never works.
Yes. That is why Iran is currently united and people are not rioting to protect a few Zionist funded and armed terrorists.
That is why there was no uprising no matter how much propaganda NATO think-tanks spread. Because the people in Iran are not discontent with their government but with Western aggression against them.
Reza Pahlavi is a fraud.
