Hundreds of Iranian students honor memory of fallen classmate

NCRI – Hundreds of students at the University of Shiraz on Wednesday commemorated the memory of one of their classmates, Hamed Nour Mohammadi, who was killed by Iranian regime agents during an anti-regime demonstration on Sunday.

According to Hrana news agency and Iran Khabar, Wednesday’s protest at the university campus took place with chants of “my martyred brother, I will honor your blood,” “Don’t be afraid, we are all together,” and “Even if bullets and plots were to rain down, the movement will continue.”

There were clashes reported between protestors and the regime’s intelligence and paramilitary Bassij agents.

The president of the university, who had repeated the regime’s claims that Mr. Nour Mohammadi was not murdered but killed in a car accident, was roughed up by the students during Wednesday’s clashes.

The regime has deployed a large number of intelligence agents to the campus to prevent the expansion of protests.

A number of students were violently beaten and arrested.

Regime agents could be seen standing on guard around the campus to control passersby and to prevent entry into the university, reports said.
