More death sentences carried in Iran

SMCCDI (Information Service)
Jul 21, 2003

Several more death sentences were carried in Iran, on Saturday and on Sunday, against freedom lovers and opponents to the regime arrested following the bloody crackdown on last June's protests.

3 of the executions were carried in the central prison of Esfahan and the 3 others in the Capital. All arrested were young Iranians who preferred to stand against the ruling theocracy rather than living on knees.

The name of one of the executed has been reported as "Gholam Hossein Mohammadi" (known as Siavash) who was arrested during the bloody clashes of Nasim Shahr, a district of the the poor suburb of Tehran known as Eslam-Shahr.

Hundreds of other arrested demonstrators of all ages and genders are languishing in prisons and several of them will be executed in the next days according to the regime's decision to increase its policies of Terror and Fear adopted in order to undermine the popular will for its overthrown. 5 of these future executions, decided to be carried "publicly" are to take place in Esfahan this week.

The threats made against the families of arrested and murdered demonstrators seem to work as many refuse to comment on their relatives fates.

Any other information on this poor soul?
I suppose we'll learn the names of the others in the next few days.
Just Terrible.
