1/Their bravery echoes through the prison bars.

Listen to the words of these 7 Iranian female political prisoners: "It is our duty to cry out against executions, & living under the horrifying threat of death alone in solitary confinement!"
#IranRevolution #IRGCterorrists
2/These are the words of Hastee Amiri, Nooshin Jafari, Raha Asgarizadeh, Sepideh Gholian, Narges Mohammadi, Alieh Matlabzadeh, & Bahareh Hedayat in a letter from Evin prison.
3/These brave Iranian political prisoners have raised their voices to condemn the Iranian government’s executions & inhumane treatment of prisoners.
4/They declare, “For decades, Iran’s society has felt the pain of the executions of its dearest, and these days we are again seeing the executions of young protestors & many others who are at risk of execution.
5/”They discuss how the threat of execution is a cruel tool used by the government to get political prisoners to “confess.” This goes as far as setting up an execution scene!
6/They shed light on their cellmates who have been threatened with execution to get them to confess, highlighting in particular several environmentalists who were unjustly arrested & charged with “spying.”
7/With their powerful call for an end to executions, these brave women inspire us to keep fighting for justice. We stand with them & all Iranians struggling for their rights!

1/While at least 31 more are at risk of imminent execution, others are being sentenced to long prison sentences.

This all occurs at sham trials where the defendants cannot properly defend themselves and that only last a few weeks.
#IranRevoIution2022 #MahsaAmini
2/Four people have been sentenced to 25 years in prison over the killing of a security force member on November 4 in the city of Karaj. Five others face the death penalty in this case.
