The data in the following pages include the names of 5,049 members and supporters of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (PMOI / MEK) executed in 1988. Although this list encompasses only a portion of the 30,000 executed, it reflects an extent the ages, professions, and families of the martyrs and their geographical dispersion.
This list consists of 570 women and 4,464 men.

In addition, the list contains victims of all Iranian ethnic groups: Balouch, Arabs, Kurds, Turks, Turkmen, Bakhtiyari, Lor, Qashqai, and Taleshi.
Compiling this list has been part of a lengthy struggle of MEK against a regime that kills and suppresses to prevent the disclosure and publication of even the least information or indicators about this atrocity. We salute all those who have suffered, been imprisoned, tortured, or faced social restrictions in order to obtain this information, especially to those, including MEK member Tayebe Hayati, who gave their lives to this cause. Tayebe Hayati, born in Tehran, was imprisoned in Evin Prison from 1981 – 1988. After her release from prison, she actively participated in the collection of the information of the 1988 massacre and was later arrested and executed during this effort.
