Iranian protesters hanged in prison for participating in January protests.

Iran has hanged a teenage boy and a young man for participating in the January protests.

.....

Mohammadamin Biglari, 19, and Shahin Vahedparast Kalour, 30, were executed at Ghezel Hesar Prison at dawn on Sunday, April 5.

They were among at least 25 men at risk after being arrested in anti-regime protests in January, with more than half a dozen others killed last week.

Mahmoud Amiry-Moghaddam, director of Iran Human Rights, warned that many more hangings will follow if pressure is not brought to bear on the regime.

‘These daily executions, carried out under the shadow of war, are part of a deliberate policy to terrorise the Iranian people and prevent new protests,’ he told the Mail after this newspaper told both men’s stories on Saturday.

‘The Islamic Republic’s main threat is not foreign bombs – it is the Iranian people demanding fundamental change.

‘We fear for the lives of political prisoners and hundreds of detained protesters in the coming days and weeks.’

Mr Biglari and Mr Kalour’s family were not granted final visits or allowed to say goodbye before they were put to death.

The young men had been seized during the protests on January 8 and accused of arson over a fire at the base of the feared Basij paramilitary base.

Mr Biglari’s father had scoured the bodies of thousands killed by the regime looking for his son for three weeks, despite ill health before hearing that he had been detained.

They ‘confessed’ after weeks held in prison, where there are extensive reports of torture, before being brought before the feared Revolutionary Court in Tehran on February 6.

Both were convicted of ‘Moharaebeh’, or ‘enmity against God’, and sentenced to death by ‘Death Judge’ Abolghassem Salavati.

Also convicted of the capital charge by Salavati that day were Abolfazl Siavashani, 51, Shahab Zohdi, 38, Ali Fahim, 23, Yaser Rajaifar, and Amirhossein Hatami, 18.

Amirhossein, a talented musician, was executed last Wednesday.

There are now serious concerns for Mr Fahim and Mr Siavashani, who were moved to pre-execution solitary confinement with Mr Biglari and Mr Kalour last week, according to Mail Online.
