Unge norsk-iranere for demokrati

The free world must outlaw the Iranian terrorist regime, which brutally executes anyone who dares to stand up for a better future for their country.

The Iranian dictatorship’s cruel barbarism was on display again at dawn today when 2 more pro democracy advocates were executed by the regime. Since Monday, 6 political prisoners and one 18-year-old protestor, have been executed. This follows the execution last week of 3 other protestors.  @YvetteCooperMP should urgently make a public statement condemning these executions, paying respect to the unimaginable bravery of courageous Iranians who have sacrificed their lives for freedom. Their heroism and that of thousands of others murdered by the regime must be the lode star guiding Iran’s future - a future based on democracy, the rule of law, protection of minorities and universal human rights: a future which must be shaped and determined by Iranians. @BobBlackman @JimShannonMP @HoAbedini @LiamFox @NualaLoan See x.com/i/status/20397…

This imprisoned man was reportedly hanged today by the Iranian Islamist regime:

📍 Eidsvolls plass, Oslo @Stortinget I dag var vi samlet for å fordømme henrettelsene av politiske fanger i Iran, og for å hedre dem som aldri ga etter under umenneskelig press og tortur. Vi forventer at våre folkevalgte ikke tier, men tar et klart standpunkt og fordømmer regimets drap. @EspenBarthEide @NorwayMFA @jonasgahrstore @Regjeringen #StopExecutionsInIran

Vahid Baniamerian and Abolhassan Montazer were executed by the brutal regime in Iran this morning. In just over a week, the authorities have put at least seven political prisoners to death. Among them are Pouya Ghobadi, Babak Alipour, Mohammad Taghavi, and Akbar Daneshvarkar, all linked to the opposition group PMOI/MEK, as well as Amirhossein Hatami, a protester arrested after the January 8–9 uprising. This wave of executions in Iran is a campaign of terror. The regime is using the death penalties to crush dissent, silence opposition, and spread fear across society. #StopExecutionsInIran

Vær så snill, lytt til Vahid Baniamerian. Han snakker direkte til dere, @EspenBarthEide @NorwayMFA @akravik79 @jonasgahrstore @Regjeringen #StopExecutionsInIran

جنایتکاران حاکم امروز وحید بنی‌عامریان و ابوالحسن منتظر را هم به‌خاطر ارتباط با سازمان مجاهدین خلق ایران کشتند. تسلیت به خانواده‌ها، دوستان و هم‌سنگران این شش انسان مبارز. یادشان گرامی است.

Iran has executed two men convicted of being members of the banned People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) opposition group, in the latest move targeting dissidents as the US-Israeli war on Iran drags on aje.news/fty5h9

My father was 33 when he was executed in Iran’s #1988Massacre for being a PMOI/MEK member. Today, Vahid Bani Amerian, also 33, was executed for the same “crime”. Silence encourages the regime to commit crimes against humanity. EU must break its shameful silence now. @kajakallas

"At least 6 political prisoners linked to the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK) have been executed in Iran in less than three weeks."

1) Today, PMOI/MEK members Vahid Bani Amerian & Abolhassan Montazer were hanged in Ghezel Hesar Prison, Karaj. They join fallen heroes Mohammad Taghavi, Akbar Daneshvar Kar, Babak Alipour & Pouya Ghobadi in the fight for a free Iran. The @FCDOSecretary @YvetteCooperMP... ...

Menneskerettigheter var en gang en bærebjelke i norsk utenrikspolitikk. Dessverre har vi blitt et land som først og fremst fungerer som en “bak-kanal”, med liten respekt for menneskerettighetene. #StopExecutionsInIran @jonasgahrstore @EspenBarthEide @NorwayMFA @akravik79

Even on death row, these brave @Mojahedineng heroes remained unbowed, unbroken, and fearless, singing a powerful Resistance anthem inside the walls of Ghezel Hesar Prison. Their voices of defiance will echo forever and inspire the fight for a #FreeIran.

All 6 of these brave men were executed this week in Iran for membership in the PMOI (MEK). Before they were hanged, they recorded this video from Qezelhesar Prison's courtyard singing about taking up arms to defend their people from the killer regime. They did not fear death. ✨

Stillheten er øredøvende! @EspenBarthEide @NorwayMFA @akravik79 @jonasgahrstore @Regjeringen @EP_President @davidmcallister @kajakallas Terrorregimet i #Iran har nok en gang henrettet to medlemmer av den iranske opposisjonen Folkets Mojahedin (PMOI/MEK): Vahid Baniamerian og Abolhassan Montazer. Siden 30. mars er seks opposisjonsmedlemmer blitt henrettet. Likevel er stillheten fra det internasjonale samfunnet og våre egne folkevalgte øredøvende. Dette er uakseptabelt. Vi forventer at våre folkevalgte tydelig fordømmer disse henrettelsene og står solidarisk med det iranske folket. #StopExecutionsInIran

At Least 6 MEK-Linked Prisoners Executed in Iran in Less Than Three Weeks According to recent reports published on April 4, 2026, at least 6 political prisoners linked to the Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK) have been executed in Iran in less than three weeks, during the ongoing war situation. Among the latest cases are Abolhassan Montazer and Vahid Bani Amerian, who were executed on April 4, 2026, after being accused of connections with MEK. Before them, Babak Alipour, Pouya Ghabadi, Akbar Daneshvar Kar, and Mohammad Taghavi Sangdehi were also executed in recent days with similar charges.

At dawn today, Vahid Bani Amerian and Abolhassan Montazer were hanged in Ghezel Hesar Prison, Karaj. The two heroic members of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) have now joined their comrades who laid down their lives in the struggle for freedom, including Mohammad Taghavi, Akbar Daneshvar Kar, Babak Alipour, and Pouya Ghobadi. The ruling religious dictatorship in Iran has once again shed the blood of two of the Iranian people’s most courageous sons, exposing its fear and desperation in the face of organized opposition, the PMOI/MEK and the Liberation Army. Vahid Bani Amerian was a fearless commander of Resistance Units, consistently on the front lines of confrontation with the inhuman enemy, both in resistance activities and during his imprisonment. Abolhassan Montazer, a former political prisoner under the Shah, spent nearly 11 years in prison after the 1980s. He was regarded as a steadfast figure and a source of support for fellow political prisoners. The ruling mullahs, by executing steadfast opposition members --Vahid Bani Amerian, Abolhassan Montazer, Mohammad Taghavi, Akbar Daneshvarkar, Babak Alipour, and Pouya Ghobadi-- vainly attempts to delay their inevitable downfall. Yet these unjustly shed lives will not silence dissent. Instead, they deepen public outrage and strengthen the resolve of freedom fighters, amplifying both anger and determination in the face of repression. These fallen heroes are teachers of resilience, integrity, and sacrifice, whose stories will resonate with a younger generation that continues to take part in waves of protests and uprisings. Among them are young people such as Amirhossein Hatami, Saleh Mohammadi, Mehdi Ghasemi, and Saeed Davoudi, who were executed in recent weeks by the clerical regime, and joined the galaxy of fallen freedom fighters. Once again, I call for a special session of the United Nations to address the ongoing executions of political prisoners in Iran and to take immediate, practical measures to help prevent further loss of life. There is an urgent need for international attention to the situation of PMOI members and other political prisoners, as well as detained rebellious youth across the country who are facing execution.

I am concerned for Vahid Bani Amerian and Abolhassan Montazer, who are reportedly at risk of execution. See communication sent: spcommreports.ohchr.org/TMResultsBase/… Response received: spcommreports.ohchr.org/TMResultsBase/… Reports of executions continue to reach me amid the ongoing war and internet shutdown. I continue to receive information that others may also be at risk. I cannot name them without prior formal communication and consent. The ongoing internet shutdown makes independent monitoring extremely difficult. I call on the authorities to immediately halt all executions during this extremely difficult period and allow families access to those who are detained.

A moving tribute by CYI member Maryam, to Pouya Ghobadi, one of four PMOI prisoners executed in just 48 hours amid Iran’s escalating crackdown on dissent. Though not here physically his music and love for freedom lives on as we play in his honor. The world must act now to stop further executions and protect every political prisoner facing death. @laralogan @USAmbUN @marklevinshow @Riley_Gaines_
