Parisa Kamali, a political prisoner held in Yazd Prison, who has been sentenced to eight and a half years in prison on charges of insulting former regime supreme leader Ali Khamenei, conducting activities against the Iranian regime, and membership in the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), addressed the people of Iran in a message.
Salute to the martyrs of the path of freedom and their families. Here, cardboard rulers govern. This is a place where one is stunned by the sight of boundless crimes. They answer cries for justice with bullets and the gallows.
The terrorist clerics commit crimes. There is not a day that passes without executions and the taking of lives.
Political Prisoner Yahgoub Derakhshan Sentenced to Death for a Second Time
My fellow countrymen are victims of polluted hands that issue death sentences with their pens. For years, the rule of the mullahs, through the systematic brutality of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), has carried out crimes beyond imagination. Curse upon you, whose survival depends only on blood. May the hands that sign orders to take lives be severed.
No to executions! Because they are a tool for creating fear and repression. No to executions! Because they are essential to the survival of the rule of the mullahs and are destructive to humanity. You carry out executions in the hope of ending us.
We are Vahid Amerian, Mohammad Taghavi, Babak Alipour, Pouya Ghobadi, Abolhassan Montazer, Shahrokh Daneshvar Kar, Mohammad Amin Biglari, Amirhossein Hatami, Ali Fahim, Shahin Vahedparast, Sasan Azadvar, Abbas Akbari, and all those whom you sought to silence through execution. We are grains of wheat. One by one, we become thousands of sheaves.
I stand with the families of Manouchehr Fallah, Peyman Farahavar, Zahra Tabari, Karim Khojasteh, Alireza Mardasi, Farshad Etemadi Far, Reza Abdali, Massoud Jamei, and Mohammad Javad Vafaei Sani, and I call for the annulment of the death sentences imposed on my sisters and brothers. Those who consider themselves separate should know that one day the bloodstained hands of the criminal clerics will weave the noose for them and their loved ones and place it around their necks. I hope for the day when executions no longer exist in my homeland Iran or anywhere else in the world.
