#Iran’s genocidal regime executed over 30,000 political prisoners in the summer of 1988. There has been no accountability to this day.

Eyewitnesses & victims’ loved ones share their heartbreaking stories.

Behrooz Maghsoodi, son of former political prisoners

Three of my uncles were executed from 1981-1988.
I’m very proud of my uncles who chose to stand up against the mullahs’ regime despite the heavy price.

Razieh Parandak, mother of a #1988Massacre victim

In 1982, [my son] Mehran was arrested for participating in a demonstration & sentenced to six months in prison. Authorities even demanded money in return for information about where he was buried.

Yahya Shojaee

Four members of my family were executed during the #1988Massacre. My daughter Nasrin was arrested while she hadn’t done anything. Just because she was my child and I was a supporter of the Iranian opposition MEK.

My aunt is one of the 1988 massacre victims. She was arrested for putting up a few posters.
She was severely tortured & they even amputated her left foot & right hand before hanging her.

Gholam Torchizi

Three of my brothers, Behrooz, Bahman & Reza, were executed by the regime. In 1981, it was the last time we saw Behrooz. They told my father he was executed for taking pictures & holding a camera.

Farah Eslami, family member of a #1988Massacre victim

My aunt is one of the 30,000 victims of the massacre & I carry her name. She had been subject to such horrific torture that a doctor came to tears.

Bijan Zolfaghari, former political prisoner/eyewitness to the #1988Massacre

Only a handful of prisoners survived the massacre. The regime forced prison guards & clerks, cooks & service workers to somehow take part so they would forever remain silent.

Farzaneh Sepehri, family member to numerous #1988Massacre victims

The day my cousin was sent to gallows they brought his mother to see her son being hanged. Afterwards & in utter cruelty, they hanged her as well.

Reza Shemirani, former political prisoner, eyewitness to #1988Massacre

When they brought someone out of the Death Room and sentenced him/her to death, they definitely did not let him/her go back to the others and tell them about it.
