The Iranian Holocaust Should Not Be Forgotten


The end of this month and the beginning of the next month is the anniversary of the mass executions of the 1988 in the Iranian prisons. On that year and within two months, thousands of Iran’s children were sent to the gallows and buried in the unknown graves.
Mothers of those who perished in this way, along with mothers whose children had been executed by the Iranian regime ever since had never stopped seeking justice for their children. The line of Iran’s mourning mothers gets longer by day while those who murder their children are not acknowledged and brought to justice. Instead, mothers themselves are often harassed and detained.
On the occasion of the anniversary of the mass killings of 1988, Mourning Mothers of Iran who call themselves Mothers of Laleh Park have issued a statement which demonstrates the depth of their pain at losing their loved ones:

“We, Mothers of Park Laleh will not rest until the secrets of the crimes are revealed and the perpetrators are brought to justice. There is no forgiveness, as to this day non of the Islamic Republic leaders have publicly acknowledged their mistakes and the files of the mass killings of 1988 is still open. One day, people will bring out documents and files of this massive crime out of the darkness and on that day we will seek justice.
We would demand to know:
-          Why those who had been sentenced to prison terms were sent to the gallows?
-          Why those who came to the streets to demand their rights were murdered?
-          Why people are under inquisition for their beliefs, detained, tortured and executed?   
There are thousands of questions which the Mourning Mothers had been seeking to find answers in the past 32 years and their fight will continue until one day they will find the answers.”

London Supporters of Iran’s Mourning Mothers commemorate the massacres of 1988 and demand the perpetrators to be brought to justice in the court of law.

London Supporters of Iran’s Mourning Mothers demand justice for those who had been murdered throughout the past 32 years, either through the chain killings inside and outside the country or individually.
London Supporters of Iran’s Mourning Mothers also demand the unconditional release of all political and ideological prisoners from the inhumane prisons throughout Iran.
