Khamenei’s henchmen hanged three Baluch compatriots on Saturday, October 21. Dawood Jalali was executed in Isfahan and Zaher Naroui (Shirzehi) along with another Baluch inmate in Zahedan. Five prisoners, including Mohammad Ali Vahidi (Dahmardeh) in Gonbad Kawous Prison, and Arman Rezazadeh in Rasht Central Prison were executed on Thursday, October 19. The names of the other three prisoners were announced in the NCRI statement of October 19.

Accordingly, the criminal and warmongering regime of the mullahs has sent at least 74 prisoners to the gallows in the past four weeks in fear of the people’s uprising.

The Iranian Resistance once again calls on the United Nations, European Union, and member states to condemn these heinous executions and to take immediate action to save the lives of death-row prisoners. It also demands that an international fact-finding mission visit Iran’s prisons and meet with the prisoners, particularly the political prisoners.
