Condemn the apprehension of
Dr. Roya Tolouei and demand for the
immediate and unconditional release of all Kurdish political prisoners
By: Baqi Barzani
September 18, 2005
Hundreds of Kurdish politicians,
journalists, scholars and intellectuals have been detained without legal
basis and more than tens of independent Kurdish publications shut down in
Kurdistan so far. The Islamic Republic of Iran in hunt of
alleviating its internal state is planning another mass murder of Kurdish
political prisoners. Taking into account that the Islamic Regime of Iran
has pursued the mode of tyranny and assassinating of activists, justice
and freedom-loving opponents from the creation of its outrageous regime,
the Islamic Regime has never ceased revengefulness and hostility towards
the vanguards, verity and freedom-loving people of Kurdistan even for a
moment. The regime of Iran, which fearsome and restless, is trembling from
the uprising of grave political storm of the mass movements has sought
massacre in political prisons as the only tactic of saving its rule.
The Islamic Republic of Iran has
broadened its brutal measures to tackle with the growth of the people's
struggles in Iran. The Islamic Regime is petrified of its gloomy fate and
for impeding the political activists, the former political prisoners in
particular, to unite the anguishing people of Iran, has initiated a fresh
round of persecutions and round- up of the former political prisoners.
Many of them have been put in prison again under again under the pretext
of completion of their files and computerizing their political
backgrounds. Some of them have been put on trial again after the
completion of their files, sentenced to death penalty and executed. In
compliance to the accessible realities, the Islamic Republic of Iran has
not been capable to block the upheavals of the people and the resist
resolve of the political activists by resorting to these sorts of cruel
techniques, arrests and mass executions in the political prisons.
Another country that treats its Kurdish
population similarly is the fascist government of Turkey, which is not
less cruel than the Islamic Republic of Iran, has the support of the
European and American Governments for killing the freedom loving people
and to suppress the hard-working people of Turkey. The Turkish Government
has imprisoned thousands of it's opponents in a inhuman and medieval
condition in prisons, attacks the Kurdish people and destructs their
cities, villages and residential areas and forces tens of thousands of
innocent people to flee from their own houses.
The Klawrojna has repeatedly warned the
international public opinion and the local and international human rights
organizations on continuation of gross human rights violations by the
Islamic Republic of Iran against the people of Kurdistan.
We draw the attention of international
public opinion toward the grave position of the Kurdish political
prisoners detained by the Islamic Republic in the peaceful protest marches
in the city of
Mahabad.
We call on all freedom
loving people, progressive forces and organizations the local and
international human rights organizations to put pressure on the Islamic
republic in order to improve the condition of the political prisoners, to
stop the execution and torture of Kurdish political prisoners and
implement the following:
-
Freedom of
Dr. Roya Tolouei
and other
prisoners.
-Nullification of any mental or physical torture in order to inspect
political tenets.
-Nullification of the death sentence.
-Prisoners to have the right to defense attorney and open court.
-Prisoners to have the right to appeal (to the higher court).
-Prisoners to have the right to inform their relatives and have visits.
-Stop ill treatment of the political
prisoners.
-Freedom of all Kurdish political prisoners
unconditionally.
- Immediate Human Rights Groups scrutiny
into notorious Evin prison
