Iran executes three Baluch political prisoners

Zahidan :  The Iranian fundamentalist regime has executed three Baluch political prisoners on Saturday morning in Zahedan, the capital of Iranian occupied Balochistan. According to a report by Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA), Iranian Regime executed the three youth in a blind revenge against human rights laws and humanity. The victims have been named as 25 years old Abdol Basit Rygi, Abdol Jalil Kahrazehi and Yahya Chakarzahi. They were charged with Moharebeh (enmity against God) and were executed in Zahedan prison, early Saturday morning. The report further said that two activists were transferred to solitary confinement in the Intelligence Ministry two days before their execution. They were subjected to brutal torture and coerced to a televised confession.  The third Baluch political prisoner Abul Basit, a social activist and a promoter of ‘Human Rights & Democracy’, was reportedly very active on internet. He used to advocate justice, Human rights and democracy in Baluchistan. He was arrested three years ago and kept in solidarity confinement for eleven months. He was physically and mentally tortured. They also kept him in appalling conditions in prison.  Intelligence interrogators subjected Mr Rigi to brutal and inhuman torture and forced him to give televised confessions against himself. A death sentence by a kangaroo court was passed against all three Baloch political prisoners after their forced confession.  Diaspora communities say that innocent political activist from Kurdish, Baluch and Al-Ahwazi community are executed in different prisons by Iran on regular basis but due to country’s strict grip on news agencies and media such news hardly reach to the wider world or find any space in international media.
