People were seen gathering in the streets and blocking roads with tires, demanding officials finally live up to their pledges of launching an initiative known as the “Gorgan Gulf” plan.

Maryam Rajavi the President-elect of the NCRI wrote on twitter:

Unfortunately, the world is silent vis-à-vis the regime’s crimes inside Iran. Outside Iran, the clerical regime is the main cause of instability and wars in the Middle East.

UPDATE ON IRAN PROTESTS:

Iran Human Rights Monitor has reported that the Revolutionary Court judges extort protesters arrested during Iran protests in November to set them Free. The two Revolutionary Court judges are Moghisseh and Amouzad. At their court hearings, the two Revolutionary Court judges tell the jailed protesters to pay them between 100 to 150 million tomans in bribes to win their freedom, otherwise, they would be sentenced to 10 years in prison.

Siamak Momeni, 18, was among those arrested during Iran protests in November. He committed suicide on January 25, in the Greater Tehran Penitentiary. A reliable source said Judge Amouzad had told Siamak Momeni at court, that he must pay a heavy amount of money to gain his freedom. Siamak had responded, “I’m just a deliveryman and don’t have such a big money.” Then the judge told him, “So, you will be sentenced to 10 years and you’ll remain in jail until your hair becomes the color of your teeth.”
