April 27, 2024 - IRAN. Call for Urgent Action to Save Reza Rasaei and Habib Deris, 2 Political Prisoners Facing Execution
The Iranian Resistance calls on the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, the UN Human Rights Council, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in Iran, and other human rights bodies, as well as the European Union and its member states, to take urgent action to save Reza Rasaei and Habib Deris, 2 political prisoners sentenced to death and on the brink of execution. The absurd death sentence for imprisoned artist Toomaj Salehi must also be unequivocally annulled, free of clerical regime machinations.
Reza Rasaei, 34, a Kurdish compatriot, was arrested by the IRGC’s intelligence agency in December 2022 and subjected to brutal torture to extract forced confessions. His case, while he is detained in Dizelabad Prison in Kermanshah, has been forwarded to the execution enforcement office.
Habib Deris, an Arab compatriot, was arrested in February 2019 and, after enduring brutal torture, was sentenced to death along with five other Arab compatriots. Habib was transferred to solitary confinement on Wednesday, April 24.
Ali Khamenei, surrounded by internal and external crises, has intensified the crimes and issuance of execution orders to divert public attention and prevent uprisings from gaining momentum.
