A Swedish Prosecutor released the indictment on Hamid Noury, a regime henchman involved in the #1988Massacre: Khomeini issued a decree, stating that all prisoners in Iranian prisons who were affiliated with the MEK & remained faithful, were to be executed. ncr-iran.org/en/ncri-statem…
"Shortly afterward, mass executions of supporters of MEK in the Iranian prisons began. Between July 30 & August 16, 1988, Hamid Noury, as an assistant prosecutor...in collusion with other perpetrators at Gohardasht Prison in Karaj, executed a large number of members of the MEK."
"Hamid Noury’s participation in the executions consisted of him...with others...selecting which prisoners would be brought B4 a court-like commission...to decide which prisoners to be executed. Noury...attended & participated in the executions." #1988Massacre #ProsecuteRaisiNow
The War Crimes Unit of the National Operations Department of the Swedish Police: Iraj Mesdaghi email address was found on Hamid Noury’s phone who sent two emails from Iran to Mesdaghi’s email address on 17 Jan 2019 (10 months before Noury’s trip & subsequent arrest in Sweden)!!!
H.Res.188, 115th Congress, condemned the #1988Massacre of thousands of political prisoners in Iran as "a manifest set of crimes against humanity," demanded that regime "provide detailed information to the families of the victims about their loved ones&their final resting places."
HRes.188 urged "UN Special Rap­por­teur on the human rights situation in Iran&UN Human Rights Council to create a Commission of Inquiry to fully investigate the #1988massacre, to gather evidence, identify names/roles of perpetrators...bringing them to justice." #ProsecuteRaisiNow

Iran’s presidential candidates, henchman Ebrahim Raisi, IRGC Brig Gen Ali Larijani, Es’haq Jahangiri, Saeed Jalili & half a dozen Revolutionary Guards commanders played major role in crimes against humanity, war crimes, repression, censorship, corruption &terrorism. #رئیسی_جلاد۶۷
Ebrahim Raisi, became Assistant Prosecutor in Karaj in 1980 at the age of 19 and a year later as Prosecutor of the Revolutionary Court of Karaj, and shortly thereafter as the prosecutor of Hamadan; he has been involved in the killing of so many innocent people. #رئیسی_جلاد۶۷
In 1985, due to his active role in killing those associated with the main opposition, the MEK, Ebrahim Raisi was appointed as the deputy Revolutionary Court Prosecutor in Tehran, and director of division suppressing opposition groups. #رئیسی_جلاد۶۷ #BoycottIranShamElections

Treasury Targets Billion Dollar Foundations Controlled by Iran’s Supreme Leader home.treasury.gov/news/press-rel… The Execution of Khomeini’s Order ‘EIKO’, is the richest and highest revenue-generating enterprise controlled by Khamenei. The other is The Astan-e Qods-e Razavi Foundation.
"EIKO and AQR control large swaths of the Iranian economy, including assets expropriated from political dissidents and religious minorities, to the benefit of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and senior Iranian government officials." EIKO was also designated in 2013 under E.O. 13599.
EIKO, also known as SETAD, has been able to take possession of some of the most profitable and largest commercial and financial firms, thanks to the direct and daily backing of Khamenei himself. The most conservative estimate of SETAD wealth is $95 billion.

Supreme Leader @khamenei_ir &his patronage network, Minister of Intelligence & his notorious ministry (MOIS) have been engaged in killing, massacre of Iranians & #terrorism abroad. Such designation & more are warranted, as Iranian people have been chanting “Death to Khamenei.”
Intel Minister Mahmoud Alavi designated today under E.O. 13553, for "serious human rights abuses" against the Iranian people, also collaborated with Foreign Minister @JZarif in a series of terror plots in Europe since 2018. Both deserve additional #terrorism designation as SDGT. Image
Treasury stated Alavi's "MOIS agents are responsible for beatings, sexual abuse, prolonged interrogations&coerced confessions of prisoners, particularly political prisoners." Recent example is wrestling champ #navidafkari murdered after torture for participating in #IranProtests. Image

Prosecutors: Iranian diplomat Assadollah Assadi handed over a bomb package,"to plant it at a mass rally near Paris two days later attended by tens of thousands of opponents of Iran’s theocratic regime & by prominent British & American politicians." #Iran #Terrorism @statedeptspox
"This was no casual encounter, as the plainclothes officers watching them knew. The diplomat, Assadollah Assadi, 48, is thought to be a member of Iran’s intelligence service, and the package allegedly contained a powerful bomb," according to The Sunday Times. 2/ Image
The suspected Pizza Hut plot, which would have caused a mass loss of life if succeeded, was thwarted in an operation involving Belgian, French German police. Next week, after a 2yr investigation, the 3 suspects, together with a 4th man, are due to go on trial in Antwerp. 3/

Indeed long overdue. No "Ambassador" title should cover the nature of a terror master. Iraj Masjedi is one of the most veteran commanders of the IRGC and one of the first commanding organizers of its Qods Force, which was formed in early 1990s to do nothing but #terrorism. 1/
Prior to 2003, Masjedi was the commander of Ramazan Garrison in Western Iran, which was the base of the regime forces and groups who pursued terrorist operations in Iraq. Hadi Ameri (then commander of the Badr Corp) and Abu Mahdi al-Mohandes, were under his command. 2/
After 2003, Hashd Al-Shaabi (militia) was fully under the command of Iraj Masjedi as he worked closely with Mohandes who was running day-to-day operations of the Shiite militias in Iraq, before he was eliminated along with Qassem Soleimani in Jan. 2020 by the United States. 3/

Indeed, in summer 1988, as many as 30,000 political prisoners-none sentenced to death-were murdered, ordered by "Supreme Leader" Khomeini, in a matter of weeks. Key perpetrators, unpunished, are now Judiciary Chief & Justice Minister. Pursue justice for #1988Massacre victims.
As documented in "Iran: Where Mass Murderers Rule," by @ncrius, Khomeini issue a fatwa (decree) that any political prisoner who refused to denounce the main opposition movement, the MEK, should be killed; that was the key question each political prisoner in Iran was asked.
"If the person at any stage or at any time maintains support for the Hypocrites [the MEK], the sentence is execution. Annihilate the enemies of Islam immediately,” Khomeini responds to then Chief Justice inquiry about his fatwa, clearing all doubts for the massacre.
