Iran to execute the first woman over widespread anti-regime demonstrations
NY Post ^ | April 15, 2026 | Anthony Blair

Posted on 04/15/2026 7:16:57 AM PDT by Mr. Mojo

Iran’s barbaric regime is set to execute its first female protester over recent protests, one of an estimated 1,600 sentenced to death by the Islamic Republic in the past year.

Bita Hemmati is the first woman due to be hanged in relation to the demonstrations that broke out in January across the country and were viciously stamped out by government forces.

The regime accused her of numerous charges, including using explosives and weapons, throwing objects such as concrete blocks, participating in protest gatherings, and disrupting national security, according to a Tuesday press release from the opposition National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI).

Her husband, Mohammadreza Majid Asl, 34, as well as two other men, Behrouz and Kourosh Zamaninezhad, who lived in the couple’s apartment building, were also sentenced to death following a hasty trial and their property confiscated.

A fifth defendant, Hemmati’s relative Amir Hemmati, was sentenced to almost six years in prison for “assembly and collusion against national security” as well as “propaganda against the regime.”

They were accused by Iran’s government of “operational action for the hostile government of the United States and hostile groups,” according to the US-based Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA).

The group was all arrested in Tehran, which saw the largest national protests against the Iranian regime.

No execution date has yet been given.

“The Iranian Resistance once again calls on the United Nations, relevant international bodies, and human rights defenders to take immediate action to save the lives of prisoners sentenced to death, especially political prisoners and those detained during the uprising,” the NCRI said in a statement.

Formally sentenced, that is. With an additional 50.000 or so regime opponents executed in the streets in a very short time with .50 cal machine guns, 20mm automatic cannons, and sniper rifles.

The pope and the Dems are not concerned by this. It’s much more important for America to have absolutely no borders.

Iran has already executed female prisoners who had been arrested in the recent protests, and maybe thousands of them.

The article might refer specifically to public execution, but that is not clear.

All the idiots in the USA screaming “Fascist” and “King” and “Tyrant” need to pay attention to what happens in the real tyrannies. But they won’t.

And we are trying to negotiate with these barbarians? Kill the entire regime, all of them. These people only want 1 thing: world dominance which would make all infidels prisoners or slaves or dead.

Kill their families, their friends, their media, all of it. It's the only way to be sure.

You mistake the Sunni belief as Iranian 12er. Iranian Shia 12er do not seek world domination, but the methods & means to bring the entire human race to Paradise, aka extinction.

The Pope’s outrage on Iran is essentially non existent... I’ve never heard him once condemn Iran or the Iranian regime.

One big problem when it comes to forming an opposition in Iran is that most of regimes enemies are in jail. When America is negotiating with these fools, releasing political prisoners should be part of the negotiations.
