<<Iran jails 400 for up to 10 years over widespread uprisings
Courts in and around the Iranian capital have jailed 400 people for charges related to recent protests, with many of the defendants sentenced to up to 10 years in prison. Ali Alghasi-Mehr, judiciary chief for Tehran province, said judges had handed down the rulings to <rioters> - a term officials use for all demonstrators who defy Iran's hardline theocratic rule. In comments quoted by the judiciary's Mizan Online website, Alghasi-Mehr said: <One hundred and sixty people were sentenced to between five and 10 years in prison, 80 people to two to five years and 160 people to up to two years>.
Tehran is one of 31 provinces in the country, meaning the total number of jail sentences is likely to be several times higher. UN human rights experts estimate that more than 14,000 people have been arrested across the country since mid-September. The movement was sparked by the death of Mahsa Amini, a Kurdish-Iranian woman who was allegedly beaten into a coma by morality police for wearing her headscarf the wrong way. But it has since morphed into the biggest civil uprising for years, with Iranians expressing their rage over deca-des of oppression, misogyny in the name of religion, and international isolation. Authorities have responded with force, firing at and beating protesters. The UN office of the high commissioner for hu-man rights has said more than 300 people have been killed in the crackdown, including at least 40 children. In an attempt to stop the rallies from spreading, Iran has imposed internet blackouts. More recently - and to dissuade dissent further - it has publicised harsh sentences handed out by its courts, including 11 death sentences, two of which have been carried out.
....
Amnesty believes 20 more people are at risk of execution for alleged offences in connection with the protests. However, Iranian activists fear that the speed at which people are being sentenced to death - and the return of the public hangings that have become rare in re-cent years - means there is a serious risk of mass executions.>>

<<Iran carries out second protest-related execution in its 'killing spree'
Iran carried out its second execution linked to the anti-government protests challenging the country's theocracy on December 12. Our Observer, Hadi Ghaemi, who works as the Executive Director of the 'Centre for Human Rights in Iran', told us this <killing spree> to crush protests is likely to shift into <high gear> very soon. At least 11 protesters are currently on death row. Meanwhile, 28 others, including children, are facing charges that carry the death penalty.
Majidreza Rahnavard, 23, was hanged <in public> early on Monday, in the city of Mashhad. He was convicted of <waging a war against God> after he was accused of fatally stabbing two members of the paramilitary Basij, a volunteer force often deployed by Iranian authorities to suppress dissent. People can be heard chanting <Martyr of the country Majidreza Rahnavard> in a video filmed at Rahnavard's grave on Monday.>>

<<Iran carries out second execution linked to anti-regime protests
Iran on Monday executed a second prisoner detained and convicted amid nationwide protests challenging the country's theocracy, airing footage on state television it claimed shows him stabbing two security force members to death and running away. The public hanging of Majidreza Rahnavard, less than a month after he allegedly carried out the fatal stabbings - purportedly angry about security forces killing protesters - shows the speed at which Iran now carries out death sentences handed down for those detained in the demonstra-tions the government hopes to put down. Activists warn that at least a dozen people already have been sentenced to death in closed-door hearings. At least 488 people have been killed since the demonstrations began in mid-September, according to Human Rights Activists in Iran, a group that's been monitoring the protests. Another 18,200 people have been detained by authorities. Iran's Mizan news agency, under the country's judiciary, alleged Rahnavard had stabbed two se-curity force members to death Nov. 17 in the city of Mashhad and wounded four others. The agency said the execution took place on Monday morning, in public, in Mashhad.
....
A heavily edited state television report aired after Rahnavard's execution showed clips of him in the courtroom. In the video, he says he came to hate the Basijis after seeing video clips on social media of the forces beating and killing protesters.>>

<<Several Iranian protesters at risk of imminent execution, rights groups say
Rights groups warned Sunday that several protesters in Iran are at imminent risk of execution, following an international backlash against the clerical regime's first hanging linked to ongoing demonstrations. The almost three-month-old protest movement was sparked by the death in custody of Mahsa Amini, a Kurdish-Iranian arrested by the morality police for allegedly breaching the Islamic republic's strict dress code for women. The protests, described by the authorities as <riots>, represent the biggest challenge to the regime since the shah's ouster in 1979. They have been met with a crack-down that activists say aims to instil public fear. Iran on Thursday executed Mohsen Shekari, 23, who was convicted of attacking a member of the security forces. Rights groups said he underwent a show trial marked by undue haste. Iran's judiciary says it has handed down death sentences to 11 people so far in connection with the pro-tests, but campaigners say around a dozen others face charges that could see them receive the death penalty. Unless foreign govern-ments <significantly increase> the diplomatic and economic costs to Iran, the world <is sending a green light to this carnage>, said Hadi Ghaemi, executive director of the New York-based Center for Human Rights in Iran (CHRI). Amnesty International said Iran was now <preparing to execute> Mahan Sadrat, 22, just a month after his <grossly unfair> trial. He was convicted of drawing a knife in the protests, an accusation he strongly denied in court. On Saturday, Sadrat was transferred from Greater Tehran Prison to Rajai Shahr prison in the nearby city of Karaj, <sparking concerns that his execution may be carried out imminently>, Amnesty said.
'Show trial'
<Like all other death row prisoners, he was denied any access to his lawyer during the interrogations, proceedings and show trial,> said another group, Oslo-based Iran Human Rights. Amnesty warned the life of another young man arrested over the protests, Sahand Nourmohammadzadeh, was also at risk <after a fast-tracked proceeding which did not resemble a trial>. He was sentenced to death in November on accusations of <tearing down highway railings and setting fire to rubbish cans and tires>, the group said. Among others handed the same sentence is rapper Saman Seyedi, 24, from Iran's Kurdish minority. His mother pleaded for his life on social media in a video where she stated <my son is an artist not a rioter.>
Another dissident rapper, Toomaj Salehi, who expressed support for anti-regime protests, is charged with <corruption on earth> and could face a death sentence, Iranian judicial authorities confirmed last month. <We fear for the life of Iranian artists who have been indicted on charges carrying the death penalty,> United Nations experts said in a statement, referring to the cases of Sayedi and Salehi.>>
