Khamenei orders ‘Do whatever you need to do to stop the protests’, ‘1550’ killed

By Hossein Bouazar

On Monday, December 23, Khamenei was “restless” a few days after the November protests. He ordered the security and government officials, “Do whatever is necessary to stop it.”

One of the sources told Reuters that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said at a meeting on Sunday (November 17) that “the Islamic Republic is in danger. Put an end to the protests in any form. That’s my order. “

Reuters reports that two Iranian officials who provided the statistics to the agency have calculated it “based on information gathered from security forces, mourners, hospitals and forensics.”

The number of protesters who were killed or injured is significantly higher than the numbers that the international human rights groups and the United States announced.

Amnesty International’s December 16 report stated that at least 304 people were killed in the November protests in Iran. The US State Department also said in a statement that hundreds of Iranians were killed in the protests and that there were reports that the number could be more than 1000 poeple.

According to the local activists the number of martyrs in the recent protests are more than 1550, more than 4500 injuries and more than 12200 detainees. It is worth noting that the Iran regime is refusing to announce the number of deaths.

We the ACFH are identifying and recording the names of the martyrs who were murdered by the Iranian regime in Ahwaz.

The authorities must end this brutal and deadly crackdown immediately and show respect for human life. Instead of continuing with this brutal campaign of repression, the Iranian authorities must immediately and unconditionally release all those who have been arbitrarily detained

We, the Ahwazi Centre for Human Rights (ACHR), concerns, while Ahwazi Arabs faced continued oppression and discrimination, the most significant human rights issues included a high number of executions for false confession and false crimes without fair trials of individuals. Torture; harsh and life-threatening prison conditions; arbitrary detention and imprisonment; of hundreds of political prisoners, are just few examples of how the Iranian regime violates the human rights.

We, the Ahwazi Centre for Human Rights (ACHR), strongly condemns Iran’s plan to execute Ahwazis. We are calling upon Mr. Javaid Rehman the United Nations special rapporteur for situation of human rights in Iran and Mrs Agnes Callamard the UN special rapporteur on extra-Judicial execution to intervene and stopping Iranian criminal regime from executing innocent prisoners that were arrested without any legal warrant.
