NCRI – The Iranian Resistance calls on the international community to condemn execution of Mr. Fasih Yasamani, 28, a Kurdish political prisoner, and warns against increasing number of executions and elimination of political prisoners. Silence and inaction on behalf of the international community in face of cruel and systematic violations of human rights would only encourage the Iranian regime to continue with killings and crimes against people of Iran. <\/p>\n
At dawn on Wednesday, January 6, the regime’s henchmen hanged Mr. Yasamani in Khoi prison. He had been in jail for almost two years. <\/p>\n
On the same day, Zahra Jaffari, a female political prisoner in Orumieh prison died in a mysterious way. She already had been held in solitary confinement for five months without being sentenced when she was suddenly transferred to the prison's clinic, then to outside prison where she died.<\/p>\n
Mysterious elimination of political prisoners by brutal methods such as force feeding of poison or injection of poisonous medicine is common practice in mullahs' medieval prisons. Akbar Mohammadi, Valiollah Feiz-Mahdavi, Amir Hossein Heshmat-Saran and Omidreza Sayyafipour were among political prisoners that were murdered by such cruel methods.<\/p>\n
The Iranian Resistance calls on international human rights organizations, particularly the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights and the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention, UN Special Rapporteur on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment to condemn the growing number of killings of political prisoners in Iran. It also calls for implementation of immediate and binding measures to stop killings of political prisoners and to get them released.<\/p>\n
