Prince Reza Pahlavi: Let’s Not Allow the 'Young-Killer Zahhak' to Take More Innocent Lives

With growing concerns over the imminent execution of three protesters in Isfahan, Prince Reza Pahlavi issued a warning of 'immediate danger' and urged the people to gather outside the Dastgerd prison alongside the families of Majid Kazemi, Saleh Mirhashimi, and Saeed Yaqoubi. In the late hours of Sunday, May 14, he called on the people of Isfahan and nearby cities to join the worried families of the three imprisoned protesters. He emphasized: 'Let us not allow the young-killer Zahhak and his agents to take more innocent lives and make more mothers mourn.' News sources inside Iran, based on statements from judicial officials, have warned the relatives of the defendants in the 'Isfahan House' case about the imminent execution of Majid Kazemi, Saeed Yaqoubi, and Saleh Mirhashimi. According to a leaked audio file, Majid Kazemi, the condemned protester, stated that he was subjected to forced confessions under psychological and physical torture. He described the tortures and threats of sexual assault in prison and insisted on the falsehood of the charges against him, stating: 'I worked until eight-thirty at night. Which group was I affiliated with? I am a merchant. I have a copper shop. I have no criminal record. What group? What party? What story?' An informed source told Voice of America on Sunday that the family of Majid Kazemi was informed that the three detained protesters would be executed within 'the next two or three days.' According to the informed source, the families of Majid Kazemi and Saleh Mirhashimi suspect that their executions may take place 'tonight.'
