On Tuesday, September 2, a young prisoner by the name of Mohsen D was hanged in public in Mahmoudabad (northern Iran). A day prior, at dawn, the outraged people of Mahmoudabad disrupted the scene of regime’s henchmen attempting to execute this young man. The officers of the suppressive forces were coerced to stop the execution out of fear that the protest would spread. The “Iran” state daily wrote: “3000 people who roared, shouted and resorted to physical action by attacking the security cordon caused the execution to be cancelled.”

On the next day, the vicious mullahs brought in a large number of intelligence agents and security forces and through adopting unparalleled security provisions, publicly hanged this young prisoner. (Fars News Agency, affiliated with Revolutionary Guards – September 2)

The spread of the wave of executions in different cities throughout the country which has reached 1000 executions since Hassan Rouhani took office, has added to people’s abhorrence for this brutal punishment.

Closing the eyes to the catastrophic situation of human rights in Iran, under whatever excuse, has had no result other than emboldening the criminals ruling Iran.
The Iranian Resistance once again underscores the necessity of referring the dossier of the Iranian regime’s violation of human rights to the UN Security Council.
