Unge norsk-iranere for demokrati retweetou
Two more protesters were executed in Iran today.
Mohammadamin Biglari and Shahin Vahedparast, who were arrested during the recent demonstrations in January, have been executed. Both were co-defendants in the same case as 18-year-old Amir Hossein Hatami, who was executed on April 2.
At least nine political prisoners and protesters have been executed in Iran since last week.
This wave of executions is a campaign of terror. The brutal regime in Iran is using the death penalty to crush dissent, silence opposition, and spread fear across society.

The Iranian regime executed 18-year-old protester, Amirhossein Hatami, this morning. He had been arrested in connection with demonstrations in Tehran on January 8–9. Hatami was one of seven protesters sentenced to death in a single case. Reports indicate he was subjected to torture and convicted based on forced confessions in a deeply unfair trial at the Revolutionary Court, without access to a lawyer. In just the past two weeks, at least three protesters and four political prisoners have been executed, with hundreds more believed to be at imminent risk. Amid ongoing conflict, the regime has intensified use of the death penalty to suppress dissent across Iran. #StopExecutionsInIran
