Tribute to KIAN PIRFALA, 9 years old and victim of the Islamic Republic's savagery 10 years ago.

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.

<<Social media campaign to support Warisha Moradi
The Women's Transnational Democratic Platform has launched a social media campaign calling on everyone to publish videos on social media platforms to demand the release of Warisha Moradi.
News Center- The Women's Transnational Democratic Platform has launched a social media campaign demanding the release of Warisha Moradi, who has been on a hunger strike in Evin prison since October 10, 2024 to protest the death penalty in Iran.

Many activists and women all around the world have published videos of themselves on social media platforms, demanding the release of Warisha Moradi.
"We know that Warisha is a successor of Shirin Alam Holi and Zeynab Jalalian and will never surrender," Rozma, a member of the Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan, said in a video on social media. A video published by a human rights activist says, "Your eyes are full of the passion of resistance and the light of life, you are the meaning of resistance." "The voice for freedom cannot be silenced," said another woman, demanding the release of Warisha Moradi. "Warisha Moradi is a fighter who has turned prison into a center for the struggle against the Islamic Republic," said another activist in her video message. Warisha Moradi, a women's rights defender and member of the East Kurdistan Free Women Society (KJAR), was arrested and taken to an unknown location by the members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in Sanandaj on August 1, 2023. After a four-month interrogation period, she was transferred to Evin Prison in Tehran. She faces charges of <armed rebellion against the state>. She started a hunger strike on the World Day against the Death Penalty, annually observed on October 10, to protest the death penalty in Iran.>>

Pakhshan Azizi, Varisheh Moradi, Narges Mohammadi, Mahboubeh Rezai, and Parivash Moslemi
Hengaw Organisation for Human Right - 22 Sept 2024
<<Evin, Tehran, Iran: Five Female Political Prisoners Sentenced to 27 Months of Imprisonment
Pakhshan Azizi, Varisheh Moradi, Narges Mohammadi, Mahboubeh Rezai, and Parivash Moslemi, five political prisoners held in Evin Prison, have been sentenced to an additional total of 27 months and one day of imprisonment in connection with a case opened due to the women's ward protest against the execution of Reza Rasaei. According to a report received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, Pakhshan Azizi, Varisheh Moradi, Narges Mohammadi, Mahboubeh Rezai, and Parivash Moslemi were recently sentenced to 27 months and one day of imprisonment by the Branch 2 Criminal Court of Quds Judicial Complex in Tehran, presided over by Judge Abolfazl Amiri Shahrabi. The case charged them with <assaulting an officer and defiance.> The verdict was communicated to them on Saturday, October 18, 2024. As per the ruling, Pakhshan Azizi, a political prisoner sentenced to death, and Varisheh Moradi, a political prisoner accused of rebellion, were each sentenced to six months in prison, while Narges Mohammadi and Mahboubeh Rezai were also sentenced to six months each, and Parivash Moslemi received three months and one day. In total, the five women were sentenced to 27 months and one day of imprisonment. According to informed sources, Parivash Moslemi was acquitted of the charge of <disrupting prison order,> and the other prisoners were acquitted of <property damage.> Parivash Moslemi was present in court, while the other prisoners refused to attend the session. It is worth noting that this case was opened on August 6 following a protest by several female prisoners in Evin against the execution of Reza Rasaei's death sentence, who had been arrested during the "Woman, Life, Freedom" movement, which led to a confrontation with the prison guards. As a result, these prisoners were temporarily stripped of their right to make phone calls and meet with their families by the prison's disciplinary committee.>>

Four Sunni prisoners
Iranwire - Oct 25, 2024
<<Iran's Supreme Court Upholds Death Sentences for Four Sunni Prisoners
The Supreme Court of Iran has confirmed death sentences for four Sunni prisoners currently incarcerated at Ghezelhesar Prison in Karaj. Eido Shahbakhsh, Abdolghani Shahbakhsh, Abdolrahim Ghanbarzehi Gorgij, and Soleiman Shahbakhsh were sentenced to death by Tehran's Revolutionary Court on February 4 for alleged armed rebellion and membership in opposition groups. The case dates back to 2012 and has been marred by procedural irregularities, including multiple transfers between courts in Zahedan and Tehran. Despite being initially acquitted by the Zahedan Revolutionary Court, the defendants were rearrested in 2016 after objections from security agencies. According to the HRANA human rights news agency, at least one defendant, Abdolrahim Ghanbarzehi, was coerced into making confessions while detained at the IRGC's Salman Detention Center in Zahedan. The death sentences have now been referred to Branch 1 of the Tehran Security Prosecutor's Office for execution. Family members of the prisoners maintain their innocence and assert that the judicial process has violated both Iranian constitutional law and international human rights conventions. According to Amnesty International, in 2023 alone, the Islamic Republic's judiciary executed 853 people, marking the highest number of executions in the country in the last eight years. Of those executed, 481 were convicted of drug-related crimes, representing an 89 percent increase compared to 2022, when 255 people were executed. The latest figures also show a staggering 264 percent increase>>

<<Leaders of Iran's Green Movement Reach 5,000 Days Under House Arrest
The house arrest of Iranian Green Movement leaders Mir Hossein Mousavi, Zahra Rahnavard and Mehdi Karroubi has now reached 5,000 days. In a joint Instagram post, Mousavi’s daughters, Zahra and Narges, emphasized that their parents, along with fellow opposition figure Karroubi, "have remained faithful to their pledge to the people and have not compromised on the people’s rights" throughout their prolonged confinement. "The house arrest of Zahra Rahnavard, Mehdi Karroubi, and Mir Hossein Mousavi has reached 5,000 days," they wrote. "This absolute injustice, illegality, and complete isolation from society have truly been hard," they added. They highlighted the ongoing surveillance and security controls around the residence, where Zahra Rahnavard and Mir Hossein Mousavi are held under house arrest. They described the residence as "a security prison out of public oversight, with the doors remaining locked by the jailers." The sisters expressed hope for the release of all prisoners in Iran, adding: "May the doors of all prisons one day open, and no freedom-loving patriot remain imprisoned." Zahra Rahnavard, Mir Hossein Mousavi, and Mehdi Karroubi have been under house arrest since 2009, following protests against the presidential election results and public demonstrations. The detention was ordered by the Islamic Republic's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei.>>

Iranian protest singer Saman Yasin has been released on medical furlough, his lawyer announced on Wednesday. Yasin's lawyer, Ramin Safarnia, confirmed on social media that his client was granted temporary release from Ghezelhesar Prison on bail. "Today, my client, Saman Yasin, after enduring around 26 months in prison, was released on medical leave following the recommendation of a medical commission and with the judiciary's approval, after posting bail of 4 billion tomans [$59,000]," Safarnia said. Legal expert Ali Mojtahedzadeh suggested that Yasin's temporary release could lead to permanent freedom, noting that his case falls under the 2022 amnesty order by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Yasin, a vocal critic of Iran's clerical establishment, was arrested on October 2, 2022, and reportedly tortured during his detention. He was sentenced to death on October 29 for <waging war against God.> However, the Supreme Court later overturned the sentence. In a letter earlier this year, Yasin highlighted his ongoing struggles with mental and physical health issues, stating, "I continue to suffer, yet incompetent officials cannot even facilitate my access to medical care. Please inform me of the crime I have committed. If I am found guilty, then imprison me; if not, then acquit me," he wrote.>>

<<Two baha'i women sentenced to imprisonment
Two Baha'i women, Suzan Eid Mohammadzadegan and Niousha Badi'i Sabt, have been sentenced to a total of ten years in prison by the Islamic Republic of Iran judiciary. According to a report received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, Niousha Badi'i Sabt, a 39-year-old translator, and Suzan Eid Mohammadzadegan were each sentenced to five years in prison by Branch 1 of the Revolutionary Court of Babol. The court convicted them of <engaging in educational and promotional activities contrary to Islamic principles.> Additionally, both women have been prohibited from participating in any educational or training activities for 18 months as part of their supplementary punishment. In September 2023, the judiciary in Mazandaran Province announced the closure of two schools and several educational and sports centers in Babol, alleging that the Baha'i faith was being promoted at these locations. Despite the accusations, the institutions involved were preschools, and the accused have denied any religious indoctrination. Both Suzan Eid Mohammadzadegan and Niousha Badi'i Sabt were arrested on August 15, 2023, by security forces in Babol. After nearly a month in detention, they were released on bail on September 11, 2023, pending the outcome of their legal case.>>

<<Protest by Families of Death Row Inmates in the 39th Week of the "No to Executions Tuesdays" Campaign
On Tuesday, October 22, 2024, families of death row inmates gathered in front of the mullahs' Parliament in Tehran to protest during the 39th week of the "No to Executions Tuesdays" campaign. Chanting "Stop the executions," they voiced their opposition to the death sentences and the imminent execution of their children. It is noteworthy that similar protests were held in Tehran and Karaj in October and November 2023, but security forces violently suppressed them. This protest marks another step in expanding the "No to Executions" campaign beyond the prison walls.
Expansion of the Campaign of "No to Executions Tuesdays" to 23 Prisons
On October 22, 2024, the 39th week of the "No to Executions Tuesdays" continued in 23 prisons nationwide. Inmates in Ahvaz's Sheiban Prison issued a statement announcing their participation in the campaign. The statement of the 39th Week of the campaign highlighted the alarming rise in executions, with more than 140 individuals, including 5 women, hanged from September 22 until October 21. The campaign condemned these systematic executions and called on political activists, civil and human rights organizations, and conscientious people worldwide to stand against this oppression. This week, members of the campaign went on hunger strike in 23 prisons, including the women's wards of Evin and Lakan prisons, as well as female political prisoners in the Central Prison of Tabriz and other jails.>>
