Rasai was arrested during the 2022 anti-regime uprising. The regime\u2019s security forces tortured him in Kermanshah&#039;s Dizelabad prison and forced to make incriminating confessions about killing a member of the Revolutionary Guards in November 2022. His death sentence was confirmed by the Supreme Court in December 2023. In May 2024, Amnesty International issued an open letter to Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei, the head of the judiciary of the Iranian regime, calling for the revocation of the verdict. In recent weeks, authorities at Dizelabad Prison cut off his access to phone calls and in-person visits with his family. According to reports, the regime prevented his family from having a final meeting with him before his execution. Rasai was 34 years old at the time of his execution. He was the 10th person to be executed in relation to the 2022 uprising. All other executed protesters were subjected to similarly flawed judicial processes, extreme torture, and conditions that forced them to make incriminating confessions. The verdicts were carried out despite global outcries by human rights organizations to revoke them. In September 2022, nationwide protests erupted in Iran after security forces murdered a young woman for violating the regime\u2019s misogynistic hijab rules. Protesters expressed decades of pent-up anger during the protests and called for the overthrow of the mullahs\u2019 regime. During the uprising, regime security forces killed more than 750 civilians and arrested tens of thousands. Dozens were sentenced to death. Prisoners were brutally tortured and mistreated and several prisoners committed suicide after their release due to the stress caused by the torture and reports that regime authorities injected them with drugs that caused severe depression. *** Content on the PMOI\/MEK&#039;s official YouTube channel is not subject to copyright if the source is mentioned ***\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:853px;margin:5px;\"><\/div><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Iran\u2019s regime executed political prisoner Reza Rasaei on the morning of August 6, 2024, in Dizelabad prison in Kermanshah.

Many families struggle to afford these costs, forcing some children to drop out of school altogether.\u00a0Recently, the tuition fees for non-profit schools for the academic year 1403 were announced, revealing increases driven by economic conditions and rising living expenses. Reports indicate that these fees range from 10 to 80 million tomans, with some non-profit institutions charging significantly more.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Lexical__paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even public schools are not exempt from this trend, demanding between 8 and 15 million tomans for student registration, particularly for preschoolers. According to Ahmed Mahmoudzadeh, Deputy Minister of Education, nearly 40% of non-profit school fees fall between 10 and 20 million tomans, while 34% charge between 20 and 30 million tomans. Additionally, 14% of schools have fees ranging from 30 to 40 million tomans, and about 6% charge between 40 and 50 million tomans. A smaller percentage of schools, approximately 5%, charge between 50 and 60 million tomans, with only 1% exceeding 70 million tomans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a style=\"text-decoration-line: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/irannewsupdate.com\/news\/society\/iranian-students-bear-the-brunt-of-rising-costs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Pursuing Justice for Iran\u2019s 1988 Massacre: A Significant Step Forward<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-262325 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Iranian-Americans-holding-a-gathering-on-Capitol-Hill-in-memory-of-the-over-30000-political-prisoners-executed-during-Irans-summer-1988-prison-massacre-\u2013-August-12-2022-\u2013-Washington-DC.jpg\" alt=\"Iranian-Americans-holding-a-gathering-on-Capitol-Hill-in-memory-of-the-over-30000-political-prisoners-executed-during-Irans-summer-1988-prison-massacre-\u2013-August-12-2022-\u2013-Washington-DC\" width=\"300\" height=\"159\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Iranian-Americans-holding-a-gathering-on-Capitol-Hill-in-memory-of-the-over-30000-political-prisoners-executed-during-Irans-summer-1988-prison-massacre-\u2013-August-12-2022-\u2013-Washington-DC.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Iranian-Americans-holding-a-gathering-on-Capitol-Hill-in-memory-of-the-over-30000-political-prisoners-executed-during-Irans-summer-1988-prison-massacre-\u2013-August-12-2022-\u2013-Washington-DC-150x80.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1988, Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader Ruhollah Khomeini issued a decree for the mass execution of political prisoners, particularly targeting members of the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (<a href=\"https:\/\/iranfocus.com\/blog\/32599-history-pmoi-mek-1979-iran-revolution\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PMOI<\/a>).

This act marked an attempted genocide against the Mojahedin, a policy continued by his successor, Ali Khamenei.
