NCRI – An 80-year-old resident of Orumieh, Ayvaz Sayadi, was wounded by the suppressive forces of the mullahs’ regime in the uprising by the people of that city last week. He later died in hospital.
The Iranian Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) has taken written assurances from Mr. Sayadi’s family not to publicize his death and limit attendance at his funeral to only close relatives.
Raids on people’s homes by the regime’s suppressive forces continue in Orumieh and other cities in Iran’s Azeri provinces.
The regime’s brutal MOIS agents severely torture the detainees to extract false confessions that they had been “seduced” and directed by “foreigners.”
The Iranian Resistance urgently calls on all human rights organizations to condemn the medieval mullahs’ regime and take urgent measures to save the lives of those arrested.
