She was an artist: a painter, a musician, and she played the guitar very well. She was executed at the age of 24 because she was a women\u2019s rights activists and a supporter of the Resistance movement, the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter Giti\u2019s execution, the Revolutionary Guards, who are the regime\u2019s suppressive forces, looked for me, and because I was a journalist for the AFP, I was arrested and sentenced to eight years of imprisonment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was tortured from the very first day. Just being in Khomeini\u2019s prisons was a form of torture in itself; because torture is not only a means to extract information from prisoners, but it is also a tool to break the prisoner and make him forget his motivations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe steadfastness of the members and supporters of the PMOI in Khomeini\u2019s prisons greatly affected me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Former Iran political prisoner describes his suffering &#8211; Part 2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1F1waDfwtTI width=&#8221;560&#8243; height=&#8221;315&#8243; frameborder=&#8221;0&#8243; allowfullscreen=&#8221;allowfullscreen&#8221;><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter three years of imprisonment, in an exceptional opportunity when I went for a surgery which was not possible to be carried out in prison, I escaped from the prison and my father was arrested in my place and he spent the five remaining years of my sentence in prison in my place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn this book of the martyrs there is a photograph of my sister who was present as a television journalist in the frontline in the Iran-Iraq war.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While going through the book \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-resistance\/18977-fallen-for-freedom-20-000-pmoi-martyrs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"alternate noopener noreferrer\">Fallen for Freedom<\/a>\u201d that contains a partial list of 120,000 victims of political executions in Iran under clerical rule, Mr. Naziri said: \u201cAs you see, there were many executions in those years, because the regime wanted to remove from the scene a resolute generation that was protesting against the religious dictatorship.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were from different strata of society: workers, employees, school students, university students, doctors, athletes, merchants and many others. Many of them were my cellmates whose existence I still feel inside me,\u201d he added with a conspicuous agony.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Former Iran political prisoner describes his suffering &#8211; Part 3<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=S6NuliLaePA width=&#8221;560&#8243; height=&#8221;315&#8243; frameborder=&#8221;0&#8243; allowfullscreen=&#8221;allowfullscreen&#8221;><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe peak of these executions was in August 1988 and the following months when due to a fatwa by Khomeini, some 30,000 people were executed in prison simply for sympathizing with the PMOI. Some of them were in the middle of serving their sentence; others had finished their prison sentence. Khomeini established a three-man commission who decided on the fate of each person on the basis of this one question of whether you are still a supporter of the PMOI; yes or no?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Naziri has been an active human rights defender in various international forums and bodies over the years. His writings about his prison ordeal have been published in major international dailies including The New York Times and the International Herald Tribune:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2004\/08\/13\/opinion\/13iht-ednaziri_ed3_.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"alternate noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2004\/08\/13\/opinion\/13iht-ednaziri_ed3_.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut as you know, in Iran executions are not only a form of retribution; rather they are a tool to frighten the population. That is why that following the 2009 and 2010 uprisings in Iran, there was a brutal suppression and the regime executed PMOI supporters such as Jafar Kazemi and Mohammad Ali Haj Aghai. Or for example last year it executed Gholamreza Khosravi simply for making a financial contribution to the Resistance\u2019s satellite television channel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere have always been public executions in Iran, including members of the PMOI who were hanged under bridges and other prisoners who in recent days are hanged in busy public squares from construction cranes. This is all to overcome the explosive state of Iranian society, in particular the youths who are fed up with this regime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Former Iran political prisoner describes his suffering &#8211; Part 4<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WCbXRvNHqcU width=&#8221;560&#8243; height=&#8221;315&#8243; frameborder=&#8221;0&#8243; allowfullscreen=&#8221;allowfullscreen&#8221;><\/iframe>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When asked about what he makes up about Rouhani and some claims that he might be a \u201creformer\u201d Mr. Naziri said: \u201cRouhani, who for the past 30 years has been a key security official of the regime, is directly responsible for these murders; especially since his Justice Minister Mostafa Pour-Mohammadi was a member of the three-man \u2018death commission\u2019 during the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/1988-massacre-of-political-prisoners-in-iran\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"alternate noopener noreferrer\">1988 massacre<\/a>\u00a0which Amnesty International has described as a crime against humanity.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NCRI&nbsp;&ndash; An Iranian dissident has underscored that the Iranian regime&rsquo;s President Hassan Rouhani is no different to other fundamentalist mullahs when it comes to human rights abuses of Iranian citizens.
