"For 14 months, 14 arrested protesters of the 2022 uprising have been held hostage"

The family of one of the 14 people arrested in the 2022 uprising in Bukan announced that after 14 months, the security forces took these people hostage in Darya prison in Urmia. The city of Bukan was one of the centers of Iran's 2022 protests, which is famous for the rise of women, life, freedom. The security forces in this city severely suppressed the protestors and more than 20 people were killed in this city and ten people were arrested. 14 of these people were arrested in a joint case. Tifur Babamiri's family, who were arrested in April 2023 along with 13 other people in this city, announced that despite the passage of nearly 14 months, these people have not been tried and are being detained in an indeterminate state. They have also announced that "Tifur did not have any underlying disease, including heart failure, until he was kidnapped by the security agents of the Iranian regime, and that the heart complications during his detention were the result of terrible tortures to force a confession and the fake scenario". The main statement of Tifur Babamiri's family: April 2023, a few months after the revolutionary uprising of September 2022 and during the wave of arrests and arrests in the cities of Iran and Kurdistan, a large number of citizens of Bukan, who are mostly married and have children and spouses, named: 1- Tifur Salimi Babamiri 2- Sawareh Azizzadeh 3- Jalil Molodi 4- Hyman Kermanj 5- Ahmed Mamzadeh Bokani 6- Soran Ghasemi 7- Pazhman Soltani 8- Kaveh Salehi 9- Rozgar Babamiri 10- Joamir Mam Khosravi 11- Hossein Hosseinzadeh 12- Siamak Hayasi 13- Salahuddin Ahmadi 14- Salar Daghdar The people of Bukan were kidnapped by security agents. For months, we families didn't even know if our loved ones were alive or not! Almost fourteen months have passed now, and they are still being held hostage in Darya Urmia Prison, in "temporary detention" and in complete uncertainty, without having committed a crime and without "judicial proceedings" on political charges. It is worth mentioning that two months ago, after they were notified by the judicial authorities, that they can introduce the "defendants" of their choice within the next 48 hours, otherwise the Revolutionary Court will appoint a lawyer for them, most of the family Despite their poverty, the prisoners have introduced their chosen lawyer to the Urmia Revolutionary Court, so that the prisoners can benefit from this basic right, and the lawyers can stand up to defend them. At the appointed time, the lawyers of each of the prisoners meet their clients in Darya Urmia Prison and officially take over the responsibility of representing them. After a few weeks of intensive work on the cases, even the lawyers in a joint action request an emergency meeting with the judge and during a meeting at the Revolution Court, they ask the judge to keep the clients who are not in favorable physical conditions, until the court session is held. to release him on bail, but Urmia High Court rejected the request of the lawyers on the false grounds that the "accused" case has not yet been completed by the Intelligence Department (read the fake scenario has not been prepared yet). The efforts of the lawyers to get rid of the mentioned prisoners from indecision have not been fruitful until today. In the past few weeks, Tifur's condition has worsened again due to severe heart complications caused by two strokes under the terrible torture in the single cell of the Ministry of Information, and according to the diagnosis of the doctor in the prison, the medical facilities in the prison for these cases are non-existent. The money is unresponsive and Tifur needs immediate treatment outside the prison. However, despite the medical recommendations of the case judge and prison authorities, until the moment of preparing this news, they refused to send Tifur to the hospital for treatment. Even the request of the lawyer to immediately transfer his client to a cardiologist was unsuccessful and they said that the specialist was called to the prison area! We, the family members of the political prisoner Tifur Babamiri, declare explicitly that until the time of his abduction by the security agents of the Iranian regime, Tifur did not have any underlying disease, including heart failure, and the heart complications during his detention were only caused by the terrible tortures to force him to confess. And the scenario is burnt, for this reason, we hold the director of Darya Urmia Prison and the judge of the Revolutionary Court and the officials of the Ministry of Information of the Islamic Republic of Iran to be directly responsible for John Tifur and the other mentioned prisoners. The political prisoner should be released immediately and unconditionally! On behalf of Tifur Babamiri family https://muhemedemini.home.blog/2024/05/24/for-14-months-14-arrested-protesters-of-the-2022-uprising-have-been-held-hostage/

Amnesty International: Ebrahim Raeesi should have been criminally investigated as long as he was alive

The human rights organization Amnesty International wrote in a statement on the occasion of the death of the President of the Islamic Republic: "Ebrahim Raisi should have been subject to criminal investigations as long as he was alive, including crimes against humanity, murder, enforced disappearance and torture." "His death should not deprive the victims and their families of the right to know the truth, and all his accomplices in these crimes must be held accountable," said Diana Al-Tahawi, Amnesty International's deputy regional director for the Middle East and North Africa. This statement adds that for decades, criminals who are criminally responsible have enjoyed the systematic immunity that governs Iran. The statement said: "The international community must act now to find a way to answer the victims of acts that are considered crimes under international law and other serious human rights violations committed by Ebrahim Raisi and other Iranian officials." Ebrahim Raisi, who was appointed as the general prosecutor of Karaj in Alborz province in 1980 at the age of 20, was quickly promoted to various judicial and executive positions and in 2021, with the support of the leader of the Islamic Republic, he became the president. Amnesty International says Raisi has openly and directly participated in or supervised the enforced disappearances and extrajudicial executions of thousands of political dissidents in the 1980s. The violent persecution of women and girls who defy the mandatory hijab has been among his actions in serious human rights violations. Participation in the massacre of prisoners in 1988 In 1988, Ebrahim Raisi was one of the members of the "Death Squad" which played a key role in the forced disappearance and extrajudicial executions of several thousand political opponents in Tehran's Evin prison and Gohardasht prison in Alborz province from late July to early September 1988. Amnesty International's statement adds that the survivors and families of the victims have been cruelly deprived of truth, justice and compensation for decades and have faced persecution by the Islamic Republic of Iran for their lawsuits. In May 2018, Ebrahim Raeesi openly defended the mass killings, describing the executions as "one of the [Islamic Republic's] proudest achievements." In a November 2018 report, Amnesty International called for a criminal investigation into Ebrahim Raisi for continuing crimes against humanity, including enforced disappearances, persecution, torture and other inhumane acts, including the systematic concealment of the fate of victims and the whereabouts of their bodies. \ https://muhemedemini.home.blog/2024/05/22/amnesty-international-ebrahim-raeesi-should-have-been-criminally-investigated-as-long-as-he-was-alive/ / لێبوردنی نێودەوڵەتی: دەبوایە تا رەئیسی لە ژیاندامابوو بەهۆی تاوانەکانیەوە لێپێچینەوەی لەگەڵدا بکرایە رێکخراوی لێبوردنی نێودەوڵەتی سەبارەت بە مردنی سەرۆکۆماری ئێران رایگەیاند، "ئیبراهیم رەئیسی تا ئەو کاتەی لە ژیاندامابوو دەبوایە بەهۆی تاوانەکانیەوە لێپێچینەوەی لەگەڵدا بکرایە، لەوانە تاوانەکانی دژی مرۆڤایەتی، کوشتن، بێسەروشوێنکدن و ئەشکەنجە". دیانا تەهوری یاریدەدەری بەڕێوەبەری لێبوردنی نێودوڵەتی بۆ کاروباری رۆژهەڵاتی ناوەڕاست و باکووری ئەفریقا لە راگەیەندراوێکدا باسی لەوەکردووە: " مردنی رەئیسی نابێت ببێتە هۆی بێبەشکردنی قوربانیان و بنەماڵەکانیان لە زانینی راستی و دەبێت سەرجەم ئەو کەسانەی لەوتاوانانەوە گلاون لێپرسینەوەیان لەگەڵ بکرێت و وەڵامدەر بن". هەر لە راگەیەندراوەکەدا هاتووە، "دەیان ساڵە، ئەو تاوانبارانەی لە تاوانەوە گلاون، سود لە پارێزبەندی سیستماتیکی حوکمڕانی لە ئێران وەردەگرن"، ئەوەشخراوەتەڕوو، "کۆمەڵگەی نێودەوڵەتی دەبێت هەر لە ئێستاوە هەنگاو بنێتتا بە گوێرە یاسا نێودەوڵەتیەکان رێکارێک بگیرێتەبەر بۆ ئەوەی وەڵامی قوربانیان بدرێتەوە و لێپێچینەوە لە سەرجەم ئەو پێشێلکاریانە بکرێت کە ئیبراهیم رەئیسی و کاربەدەستانی دیکەی ئێرانی ئەنجامیانداون". ئیبراهیم رەئیسی کە لە ساڵی ١٩٨٠ لە تەمەنی ٢٠ ساڵیدا وەک دادوەری گشتی کەرەج دەستنیشانکرا، بە خێرایی ەک لە دوای یەک پلەکانی لە دەسەڵاتی دادوەری بڕی و ساڵی ٢٠٢١ بە پاڵپشتی رابەری دینی توانی ببێتە سەرۆککۆمار. لێبوردنی نێودەوڵەتی باسی لەوەکردووە، رەئیسی بە ئاشکرا و راستەوخۆ لە بێسەروشوێنکردنی زۆرەملێ و لەداردانی نایاسایی هەزاران بەرهەڵستکاری سیاسی لە دەیەی ١٩٨٠ و لە کوشتاری نایاسایی، دەستبەسەرکردنی هەڕەمی و ئەشکەنجە هەزاران خۆپیشاندەر و بەرهەڵستکار رۆڵی هەبووە یاخود چاودری کردووە. ئازار و ئەشکەنجەی توندوتیژانەی ژنان و کچانێک کە ملکەچی حیجابی زۆرەملێ نابن، بەشێکی دیکەیە لە کارنامەی رەئیسی لە پێسێلکردنی مافەکانی مرۆڤ. بەشداری لە کۆمەڵکوژی زیندانیانی سیاسی لە ساڵی ١٩٨٨ ئیبراهیم رەئیسی لە ساڵی ١٩٨٨ یەکێک لە ئەندامانی "دەستەی مەرگ" بوو کە لە شوێنبزرکردنی زۆرەملێ و لەسێدارەدانی لەسەرویاسایی چەندین هەزار بەرهەڵستکاری سیاسی لە زیندانەکانی ئێڤینی تاران و گەوهەردەشتی کەرەج رۆڵی سەرەکی هەبوو. راگەیەندراوەکەی لێبوردنی نێودەوڵەتی هێمای بۆ ئەوەشکردووە، کە کەسوکاری قوربانیان دەیان ساڵە بە شێوەیەکی ستەمکارانە لە راستی، دادپەروەری و قەرەبوو بێبەشکراون و بەهۆی داواکردنی مافەکانیان و بۆ چەسپاندنی دادپەروەری لەلایەن دەسەڵاتدارانی کۆماری ئیسلامییەوە رووبەڕووی ئازار و ئەشکەنجە کراونەتەوە. ئیبراهیم رەئیسی لە مانگی ئایار (مەی) ٢٠١٨ بە راشکاوی داکۆکی لە کۆمەڵکوژی زیندانیانی سیاسی کرد و ئەوەی بە "دەستکەوتێکی مایەی شانازی دەسەڵاتی کۆماری ئیسلامی" ناودێرکردبوو. لێبوردنی نێودەوڵەتی لە راپۆرتێکدا لە نۆڤەمبری 2018 داوای کردبوو کە ئیبراهیم رەئیسی بەهۆی بەردەوامی لە تاوانەکانی لە دژی مرۆڤایەتی، لەوانە بێسەروشوێنکردن و شوێنبزرکردنی زۆرەملێ، ئازار، ئەشکەنجە و کردەوەی نامرۆیی، لەوانە شاردنەوەی سیستماتیکی چارەنووسی قوربانیان و شوێنی هەڵگرتنی تەرمەکانیان، ببرێتە بەردەم دادگا و لێپێچنینەوەی لەگەڵ بکرێت. رۆژی 19ی ئایار ئیبراهیم رەئیسی سەرۆککۆماری ئێران لە رووداوی کەوتنەخوارەوەی هەلیکۆپتەرەکەی لە پارێزگای ئازەربایجانی رۆژهەڵات (تەورێز) گیانی لەدەستدا.

"The death of Ebrahim Raisi does not mean that the case of his crimes is closed"

In connection with the death of Ebrahim Raisi and his accompanying delegation in a helicopter crash, the Iranian Human Rights Organization announced in a statement that "his death does not mean the case of his crimes is closed." In a statement published on Monday, this human rights organization based in Norway expressed the hope that "one day in a competent court, his record will be examined along with the records of other officials of the Islamic Republic and perpetrators of crimes against humanity." This organization, in the issued statement, has described Ebrahim Raisi as "a symbol of judicial immunity for criminals and the institutionalized lack of accountability in the Islamic Republic system". Referring to Raisi's "direct responsibility" in the execution of thousands of political prisoners as one of the four members of the death panel in the summer of 1988, he stated that Ebrahim Raisi in the early 1980s, in the midst of the repression and execution of political opponents, held positions such as the prosecutor of Karaj and Hamadan and the prosecutor of the Revolution. Tehran was responsible for "crimes" whose "dimensions are not yet clear to everyone." The statement of the Iranian Human Rights Organization further emphasizes that Ebrahim Raisi was "responsible for the execution of more than 400 people" during his two-year term as head of the judiciary. https://muhemedemini.home.blog/2024/05/20/the-death-of-ebrahim-raisi-does-not-mean-that-the-case-of-his-crimes-is-closed/
