🔸A group of political and civil activists inside and outside Iran and the Teachers’ Professional Association of Iran, in two separate statements, condemned the growing wave of executions in the country and called for an immediate halt to these punishments.
🔸Thirty political activists, pointing to the executions of several detainees from the protests of Dey 1404, especially in the case of Naghsh-e Jahan Square (Alikhani) in Isfahan, emphasized that these verdicts were issued without due regard for fair trial.
🔸The Teachers’ Professional Association also, by announcing solidarity with the campaign “Tuesdays No to Execution,” said that the executions are a tool to instill fear and prevent the society from demanding change.
🔸The association stated that, since the beginning of the year 1405, at least 597 people have been executed. The signatories of both statements called for an end to violence and respect for the right to life and human dignity.
