March 8 marks International Women\u2019s Day. Since the 19th century, women across the world are struggling for equality in all aspects, and there has progressed in this field. But in Iran under the mullahs\u2019 regime, women are under double pressure.<\/p>\n
Since taking power in 1979, the misogynous clerical regime started its oppressive measures against the women, by forcing them to wear the \u201chijab.\u201d The regime\u2019s affiliated thugs splashed acid on the faces of women who protested the mandatory veil.<\/p>\n
The regime has never abandoned its misogynistic rules and in fact, has increased them.<\/p>\n
On February 17, 2021, the Iranian regime hanged the lifeless body of Zahra Esmaili<\/a>. She had died of a heart attack upon seeing the execution of 16 men. Nevertheless, the regime hanged her lifeless body. Ms. Esmaili, a mother of two, was sentenced to death for the alleged murder of her husband, Alireza Zamani, one of the director generals of the notorious Intelligence Ministry, who had tried to sexually assault her teenage daughter.<\/p>\n Zahara Esmaili\u2019s execution marked the 114th execution<\/a> of a woman since the regime\u2019s so-called \u201cmoderate\u201d President Hassan Rouhani assumed office. Iran under the mullahs\u2019 regime holds the record for the highest number of women\u2019s execution per capita.<\/p>\n Execution of a woman – 42 with two children – in Gohardasht Prison of Karaj, marks execution of 114th woman during Rouhani\u2019s tenure as mullahs\u2019 president.<\/p>\n Zahra Esma\u2019ili was hanged this morning along w\/ 6male inmates in Gohardasht Prison. — Women's Committee NCRI (@womenncri) February 17, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
