Hunger strike held in England for condemn mass execution in Iran
The three-day hunger strike started today
Metro, 6 Aug 2016 – Campaigners will start a three day hunger strike outside Downing Street on Saturday seeking government condemnation of a mass execution in Iran.
The protest is being held in reaction to the death of at least 20 Sunni inmates at Gohardasht Prison near capital Tehran on Wednesday, on the anniversary of the state-sanctioned killing of 30,000 political prisoners in 1988.
The British Parliamentary Committee for Iran Freedom (BPCIF) strongly condemns Tehran’s continued use of death penalty, which aims to silence popular dissent.
‘The Iranian regime can no longer be allowed to hide behind the notion of “moderation” and the international community must speak up against the systematic atrocities taking place on a daily basis.’
