\"Nobel\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In a letter to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, 11 Nobel laureates expressed grave concern over Ebrahim Raisi<\/a> as the new President of Iran. The Nobel laureates called Raisi a criminal who has committed crimes against humanity. They cited statements by Amnesty International and other human rights organizations stating that Ibrahim Raisi, as a member of the “Death Commission<\/a>,” is responsible for the execution of several thousand members of the Mujaheddin-e-Khalq<\/a> (MEK) in the 1988 massacre<\/a> of the political prisoners.
\nThe Nobel laureates wrote to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, “In addition to our humanitarian obligations to advance scientific enterprise and to improve life in general, we strongly believe that defending human rights across the globe is also our duty. Therefore, we demand you to set up a committee to investigate the 1988 prison massacre in Iran and the role of Raisi in committing crime against humanity and against international law.”<\/p>\n

Joint Letter of Nobel laureates to the United Nations Secretary-General<\/strong><\/p>\n

His Excellency Antonio Guterres
\nUnited Nations Secretary-General
\nDear Secretary-General,
\nWe, the Nobel laureates signing this letter, want to express our grave concerns over the declaration of Ebrahim Raisi as the new president of Iran. Raisi\u2019s declaration as the next Iranian regime president quickly drew international condemnation because he is known to be a criminal against humanity.
\nAmnesty International announced on 19 June 2021 that instead of assuming power, Raisi must be investigated for crimes under international law. In a report <\/a>issued in 2018, which documented past and ongoing crimes against humanity related to the prison massacres of 1988, Amnesty International identified Ebrahim Raisi as a member of the \u201cdeath commission\u201d which carried out executions of several thousand members of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) and of some individuals from other political groups in prisons throughout the country between late July and early September 1988.<\/p>\n

International Federation for Human Rights reports<\/a> that Raisi played an important role in the repression and execution of protestors after the controversial 2009 presidential election in Iran.<\/p>\n

Human Right Watch reported<\/a>: \u201cDuring his judicial career, Raisi oversaw some of the most heinous crimes in Iran\u2019s recent history, which deserve investigation and accountability rather than election to high office.\u201d<\/p>\n

Recently, 150 former United Nations officials and human rights and legal experts called for an international commission of inquiry into the massacre.
\nThe U.N. investigator on human rights in Iran, Javaid Rehman, in an interview<\/a> with Reuters on 29 June 2021, called for an independent inquiry into allegations of state-ordered executions of thousands of political prisoners in 1988 and the role played by President-elect Ebrahim Raisi as Tehran deputy prosecutor at the time.<\/p>\n

Mr. Secretary General,
\nIn addition to our humanitarian obligations to advance scientific enterprise and to improve life in general, we strongly believe that defending human rights across the globe is also our duty. Therefore, we demand you to set up a committee to investigate the 1988 prison massacre in Iran and the role of Raisi in committing crime against humanity and against international law.
\nIf officials responsible for “disappearances” and extrajudicial executions in Iran are not prosecuted and punished, they will have continued impunity to repeat such crimes, and others will do likewise, believing they can violate the rule-based international order without any serious consequences.<\/p>\n
