Iran Protest-No. 205
“Kurds and Baluchis are brothers, hate the Supreme Leader to death”
On Tuesday, December 27, the 103rd day of the uprising, the 40th ceremonies of martyrs were held in Tabriz, Mahabad, and Bukan. In Tabriz, the ceremony of the martyred student Aylar Haghi in Vadi Rahmat cemetery was attended by a large crowd despite the heavy presence of the suppressive forces. Participants were chanting “Khamenei is a murderer, his rule is null and void,” “We, men and women, are fighters, fight and we will fight you back,” “Death to the dictator” and some slogans in Turkish. Suppressive forces attacked the crowd, and beat and arrest some of the participants.
Similar ceremonies were held for Azad Hosseinpour, Mohammad Ahmed Gagesh, and Kamal Ahmedpour in Mahabad, and for Hiva Jan Jan in Bukan. Participants in these ceremonies were chanting “Martyr never dies,” “Kurds and Baluchis are brothers, hate the Supreme Leader to death,” “Death to traitor,” “Death to the Supreme Leader after many long years of crimes,” “This year, is a year of sacrifice, Seyyed Ali (Khamenei) will be overthrown.” The suppressive forces surrounded the grave site of Hamid Reza Rouhi in Behesht Zahra Cemetery in Tehran and prevented people from holding his 40th day of martyrdom ceremony. On Tuesday evening, residents of the Punak district of Tehran were chanting “Death to the dictator” and “Bloodthirsty Khamenei, we will bury you.”
