In past week at least twelve prisoners were hanged

NCRI - Today, the mullahs' henchmen hanged two prisoners identified as Shokrollah Kordi Tamandani and Hassan Choobi in the southeastern city of Zahedan, the official news agency IRNA reported.

According to the same source, a prisoner identified as Allahqoli Q. was hanged in public in the southern city of Shiraz.

The Iranian regime fearful of widespread popular demonstrations, strikes, and uprisings began the new wave of arbitrary executions on April 21 under the pretext of "mal-veiling" and "combating hooligans and thugs."

The Iranian Resistance calls on all international human rights organizations, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, the UN Secretary General and the Security Council to condemn the arbitrary executions carried out by the Iranian regime, and implement immediate and specific measures against the brutal and systematic human rights violations in Iran.
