A mass grave of the MEK members in Ahvaz, southwest Iran<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK) reported on Friday that the mullahs\u2019 regime has destroyed a mass grave in Ahvaz, southwest Iran, where many victims of the 1988 massacre were buried. The regime intends to conceal its crime against humanity, and the world should prevent this.<\/p>\n

Reports indicate the Iranian regime has started to construct a boulevard on this place. This boulevard, which connects Besharat Street to Beheshtabad Boulevard and the Mahdis neighborhood, will lead to the destruction of the mass grave of the victims of the 1988 massacre between Mahdis and Phase 5 of Padadshahr.<\/p>\n

As the issue of the 1988 massacre<\/a> of over 30,000 political prisoners continues to draw attention at an international level, the Iranian regime intends to conceal what many experts describe as the \u201cworst crime against political prisoners since World War II.\u201d<\/p>\n

The MEK network inside Iran, after three days of investigation created a documentary video about this mass grave, also known as \u2018Khavaran of Ahvaz.\u2019 MEK supporters had checked the area several times with a car. A local truck driver told them of the site of the mass grave of the 1988 martyrs, mostly MEK members.<\/p>\n

\u201cKhavaran\u201d are the names of areas across Iran were victims of the Iranian regime, particularly those who perished in the 1988 massacre, have been buried. These areas have many points in common, including desolation, lack of names and symbols, the absence of gravestones and tombs, and in some cases the existence of mass graves in them.<\/p>\n

In a report published<\/a> on June 1, 2017, Amnesty International had warned about the destruction of a mass grave of 1988 victims in Ahvaz. \u201cThe desecration of a mass grave site in Ahvaz, southern Iran that contains the remains of at least 44 people who were extrajudicially executed would destroy vital forensic evidence and scupper opportunities for justice for the mass prisoner killings that took place across the country in 1988,\u201d read the report.<\/p>\n
