On Monday, May 1, 2023, five female political prisoners were transferred from Qarchak Prison to Evin Prison in Tehran.

 

The reason for the transfer remains unknown, but there is speculation that it may signal the adoption of harsher policies toward political activities by the clerical regime in Iran. Political prisoners, particularly women, in Iran, face numerous problems in jail, including unsanitary conditions, lack of access to treatment, lack of access to defense counsel, and restrictions on their calls and visitations. The five women transferred to Evin Prison were Fatemeh Ziaii Azad (Hoorieh), Elaheh Mohammadi, Niloufar Hamedi, Soha Mortezaii, and Zohreh Sarv.

Fatemeh Ziaii Azad, a supporter of the People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK), was arrested for the sixth time on September 10, 2022. She has Multiple Sclerosis and requires urgent medical care. Her two daughters are members of the MEK.

Niloufar Hamedi, a photojournalist for Shargh newspaper, was arrested by security forces at her home on September 22, 2022. Elaheh Mohammadi, a journalist for Ham-Mihan newspaper, was arrested by security forces in Tehran on September 23, 2022. Last week, the Judiciary spokesperson announced that the Judiciary had indicted the detained journalists, and their case has been referred to Branch 15 of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran.

Soha Mortezaii was serving her six-year sentence in Qarchak Prison. She was a Ph.D. student of political sciences when she was arrested and jailed in 2019. She was later deprived of continuing her education.

The People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK) celebrated the 58th anniversary of its official founding on Tuesday. Members and supporters gathered to commemorate the MEK’s long-standing survival in the face of violent repression, first by the Shah’s dictatorship and then by the mullahs’ theocracy. However, the MEK has done much more than simply survive while promoting a democratic alternative to both repressive systems.

For more than four decades, an extremely illegitimate regime in Iran has managed to deceive the world and sell the misleading assumption that the only available substitute to its own destructive reign would be chaos and the source of more instability in the Middle East.

 

Responding to an increasingly discontent society and worldwide isolation, the regime tried to fool the world with the so-called “moderates” and “reformists.”Never fall for the regime’s treachery, the Iranian Resistance exposed these tactics, and time proved those efforts futile when in 2017, protesters across Iran chanted, “Reformists, principalists, the game is over!”

On Monday, the Iranian regime’s Foreign Ministry issued the regime’s first official statement regarding the attempted murder of Salman Rushdie, simultaneously disclaiming all guilt and asserting that it was wholly justified. The founder of the regime, Ruhollah Khomeini, issued a fatwa in 1989 that called for the author to be declared an apostate and an enemy of God and called for his execution.

On Monday, August 16, residents of Shahrekord, a city in the Chaharmahal & Bakhtiari province of southwest Iran, took to the streets to protest severe water shortages in their community and other cities. The protesters immediately started chanting anti-regime slogans, denouncing the mullahs for their crimes and corruption, and blaming the entire system for the long-standing problems of the country. The Shahrekord protesters were clearly referring to regime President Ebrahim Raisi and his failed policies after one year in office by chanting “Death to Raisi!”

“Maryam Rajavi: Seeking justice for the martyrs of the 1988 massacre is a patriotic duty,”, “Raisi must face justice. This is the verdict of history and the will of the Iranian people,”

 

In political literature or the field of international politics, the term “Resistance Unit” may be new and still outside the mainstream. Yet, slowly but steadily, it is breaking through the wall of fear and censorship erected by the regime’s security apparatus as well as the disregard of the international media, which is oriented by certain interests known as ‘real politics.’

The Iranian regime has launched a repressive campaign to “enjoin virtue and prohibit vice” in its latest misogynistic effort. This “chastity and hijab” plan was approved by the regime’s Supreme Security Council in 2005. The mullahs had implemented this oppressive measure for years and had to stop it as they feared intense and widespread public backlash.
