Iman Afshari, the unelected head of Branch 26 of Tehran’s Revolutionary Court, is one of the most notorious architects of political executions in Iran. A man with no legal education, acting solely on intelligence agency orders. iran-hrm.com/2025/11/14/j...

New findings from our Part 2 report reveal a systematic pattern of abuse inside Iran’s Fashafouyeh Prison—medical deprivation, torture, forced labor. We urge urgent international access and accountability. @worldprisonbrief.bsky.social iran-hrm.com/2025/11/14/f...

Known among inmates as “the end of the world,” Fashafouyeh Prison stands as a monument to Iran’s policy of human degradation. Overcrowding, extortion for basic needs, contaminated water, and torture have turned it into a system of slow death. @prisoninsider.bsky.social iran-hrm.com/2025/11/13/f...

Zahra Shahbaz Tabari has been sentenced to death by the Revolutionary Court in Rasht, Iran after a 10-minute video trial without a lawyer, accused of supporting the PMOI. The only “evidence”: a cloth reading “Woman, Resistance, Freedom.” @drmaisato.bsky.social iran-hrm.com/2025/10/25/d...

Known as the judge of death, Abolqasem Salavati, head of Branch 15 of Tehran’s Revolutionary Court, has issued at least 25 death sentences and 1,000+ years of prison terms in politically driven trials. Defendants were tortured, denied lawyers, and sentenced in minutes. iran-hrm.com/2025/11/09/t...

🚨 October 2025: Iran’s bloodiest month in years At least 279 executions in one month — nearly one every 2–3 hours — bringing the total to 1,455 in 2025. Among them: 8 women, one juvenile offender, and 7 political prisoners. #StopExecutionsInIran @drmaisato.bsky.social iran-hrm.com/2025/11/04/i...

Iran HRM warns of a worsening human rights crisis: 1,455 executions documented in just the first 10 months of 2025. Each execution is a call to action — the regime must be held accountable. #StopExecutionsInIran @drmaisato.bsky.social @dpruoxford.bsky.social

Gholam-Hossein Mohseni Ejei embodies the regime’s fusion of security and judiciary power. From intelligence ranks to head of the judiciary, he has overseen decades of executions, torture, and political repression #StopExecutionsInIran iran-hrm.com/2025/11/03/t...

Saeed Mortazavi, the prosecutor behind the murder of Zahra Kazemi, the Kahrizak deaths, and large-scale corruption, has returned to the legal profession with a new attorney license. This is institutionalized impunity in Iran’s judiciary. iran-hrm.com/2025/10/31/j...

Iran’s execution crisis isn’t about justice, it’s about repression. From 578 executions in 2022 to nearly 1,000 already in 2025, the death penalty has become a tool to silence dissent. Read why this surge sparked Iran’s No to Executions movement ⬇️ iran-hrm.com/2025/09/17/i...

The numbers speak for themselves. In 2025 the rise in executions in Iran is alarming. Time and again, we have shed light on these deteriorating conditions. Silence only invites the regime to continue with impunity. #stopexecutionsiniran @drmaisato.bsky.social @amnesty.org

On UN #InternationalDayOfCharity, (Sept 5) 🌍honors solidarity & the fight against poverty. In Iran, however, regime-run “charities” like Bonyad Mostazafan, Astan Quds & the Relief Committee are hubs of corruption, money laundering & the reproduction of poverty. iran-hrm.com/2025/09/04/i...
