Maryam Rajavi expresses solidarity with calls for protest and public mourning in Kurdistan, Iran

NCRI – Mrs Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance has welcomed calls for protest and public mourning by organizations, groups and committees that defend human rights and political prisoners in Kurdistan.

Mrs Rajavi also hailed the three martyred political prisoners, Habibollah Golparipour, Reza Esmaeili and Shirkou Ma’arefi, and the heroic children of Kurdistan, as well as people of the cities of Saqez, Baneh, Marivan, Paveh and Nosoud, especially the brave daughters of Kurdistan, for rising up in protest to the wave of execution of political prisoners by the mullahs’ regime.

In addition to the Kurdish compatriots, Mrs Rajavi on Saturday urged Baluchi and Arab compatriots in Sistan and Baluchistan and Khuzestan to join this call and the just movement against the wave of executions of the brave children of Iran who are being unceasingly and innocently martyred in these regions.

In particular, Mrs Rajavi noted that Thursday, November 14, is the day of Ashura, and it is fitting that all compatriots echo the call for freedom by the great prophet during the month of Moharam and confront the tyranny of mullahs.

The President-elect of the Iranian Resistance also stressed that popular uprisings, calls by political organizations, demonstrations, strikes, protests and confrontation against the mercenaries of the ruling enemies of the Iranian people taking place at ‘any opportunity, any time, and any place’ are indication of liveliness and perseverance in Kurdistan as well as throughout Iran.

Mrs Rajavi described the simultaneous executions in Kurdistan and execution of 16 political prisoners in Baluchistan following the mass execution of 52 members of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) in Ashraf as obvious sign of fear by the mullahs’ regime. She said the regime faces popular uprisings against tyranny at the same time as it attempting to smile at Western countries in the nuclear negotiations, to persuade them to condone its atrocities against humanity and to avoid referral of its human rights dossier to the United Nations Security Council.
