Younesi is a former Minister of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) and is personally responsible for ordering numerous arrests and assassinations of dissidents.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on the regime&#8217;s admission that it had usurped church grounds to build its own prayer hall, Ali Safavi of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) said: <strong>\u201cThe brazen admission displays first and foremost the discriminatory and sectarian policies of the regime vis-\u00e0-vis Iran\u2019s religious minorities. At the same time, it speaks to the failure of Western policy to accommodate the regime in the futile hope that it will promote moderation and tolerance on the domestic front.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Under the banner of Shiite Islam, the ruling clerics have systematically suppressed people of different faiths and even denied the minority Sunni Muslim population their basic rights.<\/p>\n<p>On July 29, the regime <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/human-rights\/18839-iran-regime-destroys-sunni-mosque-in-tehran\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"alternate noopener noreferrer\">destroyed <\/a>a Sunni prayer hall in the capital Tehran.<\/p>\n<p>Officials from the Tehran municipality, backed by state suppressive forces (police), raided and destroyed the Sunni \u2018Pounak\u2019 prayer hall. They also searched the premises of the mosque\u2019s Sunni imam Abdullah Moussa-Zadeh and confiscated his mobile phone.<\/p>\n<p>The Tehran municipality had shut down the Pounak prayer hall and placed seals on its entrance earlier in the year. Although the seals were later removed, Sunni Muslims had been prevented from praying in the center.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the president-elect of the Iranian Resistance, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/ncri-statements\/president-elect\/18843-maryam-rajavi-destruction-of-sunni-prayer-hall-in-tehran-is-anti-islamic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"alternate noopener noreferrer\">described <\/a>the destruction of the Sunni prayer hall in the Pounak district of Tehran as an anti-Islamic, sectarian and criminal act, and she called on all defenders of human rights and freedom of religion and belief and the international community, especially Muslim countries, Europe and the US, to protest against it.<\/p>\n<p>The prayer hall\u2019s destruction also drew immediate criticisms from Iranian Sunni leaders. Mowlavi Abdulhamid, the Sunni imam in the city of Zahedan, south-eastern Iran, sent letters of protest to the mullahs\u2019 Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and to Hassan Rouhani condemning the raid.<\/p>\n<p>In his letter to Rouhani, Abdulhamid wrote: \u201cIntolerance towards even a single ordinary prayer hall and its destruction in a city that does not allow Sunnis to build a mosque &#8230; not only hurts the sentiments of Iran\u2019s Sunni community, but also offends all Muslims of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The regime\u2019s security forces have on numerous occasions prevented Sunni Iranians from holding prayers in particular during the religious Eid festivals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NCRI &ndash; Authorities in Tehran are planning to transform
