Taking stock of Iran’s crimes against humanity 30 years after the 1988 massacre In one summer around 30,000 political prisoners were executed and buried in mass graves in Iran. By Reza Shafiee Special to Al Arabiya English Friday, 10 August 2018 On July 26, Amnesty International renewed its warning of many years that the theocratic regime in Iran is destroying all the evidence of the 1988 massacre of political prisoners. Since the massacre, the only visible proof of it is mass graves where bodies of the prisoners were piled up. There is also a constant reminder for the rest of us that such heinous crime has not been thoroughly investigated by an independent international commission. Amnesty International in its Urgent Action said: “ROAD TO BE BUILT OVER INDIVIDUAL AND MASS GRAVES.

by  Jolie Kavar Gohardasht Prison carries out executions, at least 30 in August. One  Human Rights  organization summed it up as ‘one execution every day.’ The  No to execution and prison organization  reminds that Iran holds the highest number of executions. This is compared to the number of citizens it executes compared to other countries in the world.

by Bahar Mehr  These days, with some news of the suicide, I wanted to make the last moments with my incomplete understanding as a narrative that I had written a long time ago and today I rewrote it . Iran, under the rule of the mullahs have become a large prison, a prisoner who, if you do not think about it, is the only way to save it from suicide, which is what the mullahs want to kill their own people . I tried to link the social problems without mentioning the mullahs, but they were completely well-grounded in the story of the mullahs, by exposing these hidden crimes, the depth of the disaster in Iran is better seen .
