The inhuman clerical regime hanged a prisoner in public in Tehran on September 13. Previously a 34 years- old prisoner was hanged in public in Shahroud on September 12 . A group of 11 prisoners were hanged collectively in Tehran’s Evin prison on September 8. The number of executions only for the period of September 8 to September 11 has reached to 13.
Unprecedented intensification of internal and international crisis, particularly economic bankruptcy that has resulted in crippling inflation on Iranians, has intensified the Iranian regime’s fear of growing public anger.
The fragile clerical regime, particularly at a time when the dictator of Syria, its main regional ally is on the verge of collapse, has resorted to increased suppression and death penalty in order to prolong its life even for a short period.
The Iranian Resistance calls on the international community, especially human rights organizations to take immediate and decisive action to stop the brutal repression in Iran, especially the brutal death penalty.
