The reports on the situation in Iran are alarming: the number of executions has increased significantly last year. Human rights organizations speak of almost 1,000 executed death sentences, the highest value in two decades. A significant part of these executions, which made 503 of the 975 known cases, are related to drug -related offenses. The general human rights situation in Iran is worrying, which also makes Amnesty International clear. Torture and ill -treatment are widespread, and the right to a fair legal proceedings is systematically violated.

repression increases

The protesters in Berlin also warned of the increasing repression in Iran, which, according to international conflicts such as Israeli air strikes, continued to increase as contrary to international law. Activist Motahareh Goei, who raised critical votes against the government, was arrested after demanding measures to protect the population on Twitter. Her quick detention is only one of many who recently reported in the country taz.

The arrest of Goonei follows a pattern of growing state repression. The Attorney General has threatened the population with criminal consequences if they make “false” statements about the war. In just a few days, dozens of people were arrested, whereby the reasons are as diverse as the charges themselves, from "disorder of intellectual security" to "cooperation with Israel".

a worrying increase in executions

The wave of executions in Iran has tripled since Hamas terrorist in October 2023. This is often linked to the allegation of the espionage for Israel. Amnesty International therefore calls for a determined approach of the international community against this increasing violence. The human rights organization also emphasizes that the death penalty is used as a political oppression, especially against relatives of ethnic minorities, as in the case of Dr. Ahmadreza Djalali was shown, who has been in custody since 2016 and is waiting for his execution.

The protests in Berlin are part of a larger framework of international solidarity efforts with Iran, the situation of which is further deteriorated under the constant pressure. As reports Amnesty International, illegal violence, including sharp ammunition and mass arrest, is carried out against any resistance. The appeal for freedom is more urgent than ever, both internationally and national.
