Editorial by G. d'A.: Dear reader, as a
webmaster also I constantly have to guard the read-ability of the 'Cryfreedom'-outlet
and sometimes decisions need to be made to have it be for your
convenience and moreso in total support of the women-led revolt in Iran
which inevitably will be a grand Victory. Still, choices must be made
always and so I've decided to, for now, embed all the actual news about
the 'NO-hijab; 'Biological terror attscks against schoolgirls'; 'Iranian
journalists under siege'; 'Blinding as a weapon' and 'The hanging spree'
as part of the 'Actual news' updates of the Iran 'Woman, Life, Freedom'
section. But, if need be and urgent attention and action is needed
concerning the above mentioned topics it will get an extra emphasized
place as part of the actual news page-layout. Thank you for being a
reader and for your support of the 'Woman, Life, Freedom' revolution.

Narges Mohammadi Criticizes UN's Memorial for Raisi
Narges Mohammadi, the imprisoned Nobel Peace Prize laureate, has
criticized the United Nations' planned memorial ceremony for Ebrahim
Raisi, calling it "a commemoration of the executions and mass killings."
In a letter from Evin prison, she wrote, "When the governments of the
world elevate a blatant human rights violator and butcher from Iran's
history to a position of honor, as if mourning a peace-loving and
democratic figure, they set a dangerous precedent."
<This emboldens dictators, oppressors, torturers, and executioners
worldwide.>
Narges Mohammadi: "They see and are assured that upon their deaths, the
UN flag will be at half-mast, and global politicians and statesmen will
offer condolences, while the voices of helpless and oppressed protesters
are stifled by the barriers of 'diplomatic relations' and 'state
precedents.'
By opening its doors to commemorate Raisi, the United Nations is
effectively shutting the already fragile doors on its human rights
foundations, a decision I deeply regret. Without a doubt, we, the proud
people of Iran, are well aware and witness that Raisi, both in the 1980s
as a member of the 'Death Committee' that orchestrated the Khavaran
massacres, and in recent years, when he was named president of the
Islamic Republic with minimal elections and suppressed and killed
protesters during the magnificent Mahsa uprising, stands as a criminal
in the history of our land."
According to reports from Iranian news agencies, the United Nations
General Assembly is set to hold a memorial ceremony in the coming days.
The representative of Trinidad and Tobago at the United Nations, who is
currently chairing the General Assembly, announced in a statement that
this meeting will be held on May 30. Shirin Ebadi, another Nobel Peace
Prize laureate, also expressed her disapproval on Friday through an
Instagram post announcing the memorial ceremony for Ebrahim Raisi.
Ebadi wrote, "The case of the Islamic Republic is much darker and more
shameful than it is possible to commemorate and honor its officials in a
place where there is a trace of justice, fairness, and conscience." >>

<<'Tyranny Will Fall': Narges Mohammadi Reveals Plight of Elderly Women
in Evin
At least 20 political prisoners in Tehran's Evin prison are over 60
years old, Nobel Peace Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi revealed on
Monday.
In a message posted on her Instagram page, Mohammadi addressed the
concerning situation of women political prisoners in Evin Prison,
specifically those over the age of 60.
Mohammadi emphasizes the double significance of this situation.
"It reflects the commitment of these women to freedom as well as the
cruelty and brutality of the Islamic Republic,> she wrote.
<They endure imprisonment for the advancement of human rights. I'm
writing this message to ensure that the cherished people of Iran and the
resilient youth, particularly the courageous and bold girls of Iran, are
informed and inspired. As long as such mothers stand among the ranks of
the activists, tyranny will fall, and the cause of freedom will stand
strong. Mahavash Shahriari, Kobra Beigi, Raheleh Rahemi, and Nahid
Taqavi stand as exemplars among the women fighters of the Evin Women's
Ward, and every day, I am awed by the magnificence and valour of their
stance and their unyielding resolve. These mothers, in the 7th decade of
their lives, bestow upon human history the blessings of freedom,
equality, and the indomitable spirit of resistance against tyranny. In
this ward, we have witnessed some of these women enduring incredibly
painful and challenging circumstances due to physical ailments and
illness. At least three among them find imprisonment unbearable.
However, with remarkable resilience, empathy, and solidarity, they stand
alongside other prisoners, embodying the essence of
political-ideological prisoners in their steadfast resistance,"
Mohammadi wrote.
Previously, Mohammadi had drawn attention to the health issues faced by
many female political prisoners.>>

<<Narges Mohammadi Condemns Death Sentence of Iranian Rapper Toomaj
Salehi
Narges Mohammadi, the imprisoned Nobel Peace Prize laureate, has
condemned the death sentence of protest rapper Toomaj Salehi. <Toomaj's
death sentence signifies the death of our vibrant movement. Let us rally
for the survival of the movement that defines our existence,> she said
in a message from Evin prison. Mohammadi's statement, posted on her
official Instagram page, adds: <The resilient, united hands of the
Iranians will not permit the raising of Toomaj Salehi's gallows.
Dismantle the death sentence and the noose before they are torn apart by
the outcry of the Iranian people.> From her confines in Evin prison,
this prominent dissident further asserted: <Toomaj Salehi epitomizes the
resounding voice of the Woman, Life, Freedom movement and its anthem.>
<His execution would signify the death of our vibrant movement. Let us
unite in defence of our movement, which is our essence. Let us all rise
together. Our defiance is against Toomaj's execution; our defiance is
for breaking chains, for life, for freedom,> she said. Mohammadi
condemned the <vengeful, cowardly, and barbaric executions> as a <blight
upon the dark and putrid robe of the authoritarian religious
government,> and implored, <Let us not allow the blood of another young
soul to stain the purity of our homeland. We have the power to prevent
it. We can.> A Revolutionary Court in central Isfahan sentenced Iranian
rapper Toomaj Salehi to death on Wednesday. Salehi was initially
arrested in October 2022 after voicing support for the nationwide Woman,
Life, Freedom protests that had erupted the previous month.
He released songs criticizing the government and supporting the protests
demanding more freedoms and women's rights. He also posted pictures and
videos of himself during the demonstrations. In July 2023, a court
sentenced the artist to six years and three months in prison for
<corruption on Earth.> He was released on bail on November 18 after the
Supreme Court, responding to an appeal, found <flaws in the original
sentence> and returned the case to a lower court for reexamination and
possible retrial. Salehi was returned to jail less than two weeks later
to face new charges after publicly discussing his torture in prison in a
video.>>

<<Nobel Laureate Critiques 'Baseless' Case Against Iranian Activists
Imprisoned Nobel Peace Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi has described the
case against Iranian environmental activists as one of the <most
baseless and deceptive> fabricated by Iranian security forces against
civil society. Niloofar Bayani, Homan Jokar, Sepideh Kashani, and Taher
Ghadirian, environmental activists, were released after seven years in
prison this week. Mohammadi, in a note posted on her Instagram page,
condemned these charges as a <web of lies, fabrications, and baseless
accusations> orchestrated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)
against activists. She criticized the <flawed and regime-dependent
judicial system> that sentenced the activists based on these fabricated
charges.
Mohammadi slammed the system for resorting to <grueling solitary
confinement, lengthy prison terms, and extortion> against the accused.
Referring to open letters by Bayani and Kashani, Mohammadi denounced the
<physical and psychological torture, sexual harassment, and death
threats> inflicted by the IRGC. The activists themselves, in their
letters, detailed the <relentless mental and emotional abuse, threats of
physical and sexual violence, and death threats> they endured during
their detention. Kashani's letter specifically mentioned being shown the
video of Kavous Seyed Emami's body, likely as a form of torture. Kavous
Seyed Emami died just a month after his arrest during interrogation by
the Revolutionary Guards. The authorities claimed it was suicide, but
his family vehemently disputes this. No independent investigation has
been conducted into the death of the prominent Iranian environmentalist.
Additionally, interrogators subjected Kashani's husband, Homan Jokar, to
a mocked execution as further intimidation. They all worked at the
Persian Wildlife Heritage Foundation, dedicated to saving the Iranian
cheetah from extinction. The IRGC intelligence accused them of espionage
without presenting evidence. These activists, along with five others-Abdolreza
Kohpayeh, Sam Rajabi, Amir Hossein Khaleghi, Morad Tahbaz, and Kavous
Seyed Emami-were charged with <espionage> and <collaboration with
hostile countries.> Subsequently, Bayani and Tahbaz received ten-year
sentences, Jokar and Qadirian received eight years, while Rajabi,
Kashani, Khaleghi, and Hamid were sentenced to six years each. Kohpayeh
received the shortest sentence of four years.>>

<<Letter from Narges Mohammadi for Newroz
"From behind prison bars, I extend my warmest congratulations on Nowruz,
the Persian New Year, a symbol of renewal, rebirth, growth and hope,
with the onset of spring," said the letter of Nobel Peace Prize winner
Narges Mohammadi.
News Center- Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi wrote a letter
wishing a happy Newroz.
"From behind prison bars, I extend my warmest congratulations on Nowruz,
the Persian New Year, a symbol of renewal, rebirth, growth, and hope,
with the onset of spring," her letter read. "May this auspicious
occasion mark the end of the oppressive regime, paving the way for
democracy, freedom, & equality to flourish for the people of Iran and
beyond."
Her letter is as follows:
"Dear compatriots,
Another winter has passed, and a new season of growth begins. This
remarkable change reflects the ongoing essence of life, as it
continues....
We, the people of Iran, have felt the coldness of tyranny,
discrimination, & the 45-year-long crimes of the despotic religious
regime in our hearts, minds, & souls. but, with an unshakable will,
rooted in our principles and values, we are welcoming a new season of
growth & will bear the burden of injustice, discrimination, corruption,
& crime. Nature heralds the spring's growth, and the history of this
land testifies to the growth of freedom, equality, and democracy. Just
as the breathtaking diversity of nature enriches and inspires the world
around us, offering boundless opportunities to every living being, it is
imperative that we recognize and embrace the richness of diversity
within Iran. From our varied ethnicities, languages, genders, beliefs,
ideas, to our unique historical journeys and even the natural wonders of
our land, each aspect presents us, the people of Iran, with endless
prospects and potentials. This diversity fuels our democracy, nurtures
our civil society, and champions human rights. Let us harness this
diversity as a source of strength and unity, forging a path that not
only transforms our nation but also serves as a beacon of hope and
inspiration for the entire Middle East, igniting a fervent desire for
peace and democracy. I have hope & faith that we, the people of Iran,
through resistance & perseverance, will bring an end to the despotic
religious regime &, united on a democratic path, will make a transition
from tyranny to democracy, laying the foundation for a life-altering,
futuristic, & hopeful change.
Happy Nowruz!"
