Mothers of the martyred protesters of the 2019 uprisings in Iran have joined together to campaign for the boycott of the June 18 sham elections in Iran.
The mothers recorded a video in order to tell the people not to vote for the regime which so cruelly took the lives of their children as well as 1500 others who took part in the November 2019 nationwide protests.
On April 19th, in a shameful act, the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) elected Iran as its member for a four-year term from 2022 until 2026. The secret vote by the UN’s Economic and Social Council sparked outrage among human rights activists.
Political prisoner Golrokh Ebrahimi Iraee has been sentenced in absentia to another one year in prison. Branch 26 of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran issued a one-year sentence in absentia for political prisoner Golrokh Ebrahimi Iraee on the charge of “propaganda against the state.” Amol Prison authorities informed Ms. Iraee as she is being detained in the women’s ward of this prison.
Ms. Iraee has been also punished by getting banned from membership in any political group or party and also banned from leaving the country for two years.
