NCRI – In an open letter to Ban Ki-moon, some of Malayer’s pro-PMOI (MEK) athletes and merchants have called for the referral of Iran’s violation of human rights record to the UN Security and Human Rights Councils.
Parts of the letter are as follows:
Mr. Ban Ki-moon, the Secretary-General of the United Nations and the UN Human Rights Council,
With rising student and educators protests across the country and the progress of the Justice-seeking movement, we express our solidarity with the movement to obtain justice regarding the 1988 Massacre. Many of those loved ones (who were massacred at the time) were young students, schoolchildren and women including pregnant women.
Unfortunately, those responsible for the massacre have not yet been put on trial or questioned, while still holding executive positions and being among the officials of the current government.
The silence of the international communities and various human rights organizations as well as the United Nations against this historic crime has been an incentive to continue the killing, hanging, torturing and executing the children of our people to date. We condemn this massacre and ask for the trial of all those responsible in this inhumane crime.
We ask that necessary measures be taken, seriously, to refer this crime against humanity to the International Criminal Court so that the perpetrators be brought to justice. These are legitimate demands which are easily applicable, but only with political courage. We support the call by Mrs. Maryam Rajavi in this regard.
