The Iranian Resistance calls on the UN Secretary General, Security Council, High Commissioner for Human Rights and other competent international bodies to take urgent measures to stop rising trend of executions in Iran. It also calls for immediate referral of the clerical regime's human rights dossier to the UN Security Council for adoption of binding measures. Silence and inaction by the international community over the systematic and flagrant violations of human rights in Iran only emboldens the mullahs to continue and step up their atrocities.
