<<Iran intensifies protest crackdown as UN decries executions.
Paris (AFP) - Iran's judiciary said Tuesday it will <firmly punish>
women who violate strict dress rules, as the United Nations warned
Tehran is trying to crush protests by weaponising the death penalty.
Demonstrations have swept Iran since the September 16 death of Iranian
Kurdish woman Mahsa Amini, 22, after her arrest in Tehran for allegedly
failing to adhere to the dress rules which demand wo-men wear hijab
headscarves. After nearly four months of protests, in which Iran has
hanged four people for their role in the unrest, the UN Human Rights
Office in Geneva said Iran's executions without due process amount to
<state-sanctioned killing>. Since the outbreak of the protests, the
morality police units charged with enforcing the hijab rules have been
less visible and many women have taken to the streets with their heads
uncovered. But as the demonstrations continue, the prosecutor general on
Tuesday issued a directive in which <police were ordered to firmly
punish any hijab violations>, Mehr news agency reported. <Courts must
sentence the violators, as well as fine them, to additional penalties
such as exile, bans on practising certain professions and closing
workplaces,> Mehr quoted the judiciary as saying.
Death sentences rise
Iran's judiciary said Tuesday it had sentenced another man to death in
connection with the protests, with Javad Rouhi found guilty of charges
of <corruption on Earth>. >>

<<Detained protesters face unfair prison sentences in 5-min trials.
The clerical regime's Judiciary continues to issue unjust sentences to
detained protesters arrested during the nationwide Iran uprising. Two
years for Mahtab Ansarian, Mahshid Zahedpasand, and Mina Afshari. Mahtab
Ansarian, Mahshid Zahedpasand, and Mina Afshari are among the young
women detained during the recent Iran up-rising. Each of the three
detained protesters was sentenced to two years in prison in a 5-minute
trial that was held online.
Mahtab Ansarian, a 19-year-old student in the first semester of graphics
at Tehran's Soura University, and Mahshid Zahedpasand, 19, were arrested
on November 15, 2022, in phase one of Andisheh, in Shahriar, a city in
Tehran Province that is a hotbed of protests. The three young women are
currently incarcerated in Qarchak prison.
Mina Afshari, 23, was also arrested on November 15, 2022, in Fardis of
Karaj and taken to Qarchak Prison. The security services forced her
family to remain silent and prevented the news of Mina Afshari's arrest
from being published in the media by promising to release their child.

<<Charlie Hebdo doubles down on Iran leader cartoons.
Paris (AFP) - French satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo doubled down on
its ridicule of Iran's religious rulers on Tuesday, with fresh car-toons
of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei despite protests from Iran and
its allies. <The mullahs aren't happy. The caricatures of their supreme
leader... do not seem to have made them laugh,> the paper's editor,
known as <Riss>, writes in the latest edition, which hits newsstands on
Wednesday. <Laughing at themselves has never been a strong point of
tyrants,> he added. The paper was hit by a cyber attack after publishing
cartoons of Khamenei in last week's special edition, which marked the
anniversary of the 2015 attack on its Paris offices that left 12 dead.
<A digital attack doesn't leave anyone dead, but it sets the tone. The
mullah's regime feels in such danger that it considers it vital to its
existence to hack the website of a French newspaper,> Riss wrote. <It is
an honour in one sense, but above all proves that they feel their power
is very fragile.> >>

<<More than 19,000 people have been arrested since protests erupted in
Iran in mid-September 2022. Human rights organisations say that dozens
of them have been killed in secret detention cen-tres. But security
forces are trying to cover up these deaths by threatening family members
into silence or staging the deaths as suicides. Beaten during protests,
arrested, tortured and then denied medical treatment: This is how dozens
of Iranians have lost their lives during the Islamic Republic's current
wave of unrest, which some are calling the <Mahsa Revolution>.>>

<<Iran hands out three more death sentences over Amini protests.
News Wires - Iran has sentenced to death three people accused of killing
three members of the security forces during the protests trig-gered by
the death of Mahsa Amini, the judiciary said Monday.
Iran has handed down three more death sentences for offences related to
the civil unrest triggered by Mahsa Amini's death, the judiciary said
Monday, fuelling international protests against the regime. The latest
sentences - for three men who were convicted of the killings of three
security forces members - bring to 17 the official total of detainees
condemned to death in connection with the nearly four months of
protests. Four executions have been carried out while six of those
convicted have been granted retrials. Oslo-based group Iran Human Rights
(IHR) said Monday at least 109 protesters now in detention have been
sentenced to death or face charges that can carry capital punishment.>>

<<Nazila Maroofian fainted, suffered an infarct before standing trial.
Photojournalist Yalda Moayeri with 23 years of experience sentenced to
six years and sweeping parks Nazila Maroofian, 23 and a journalist,
suffered an infarct before standing trial on January 4, 2023.
This young journalist has been under much mental pressure and
psychological torture in prison and interrogation. Since her arrest, she
has been confined in solitary confinement or cells with a small number
of prisoners. On the day of the trial, she fainted and had an
infraction. Nazila Maroofian was transferred to Mofatteh Hospital in
Shahr-e Rey, but she was returned to Qarchak Prison without com-pleting
the tests. Nazila Maroofian, a student at Tehran's Allameh Tabatabai
University and a reporter for Rouydad 24, was arrested on October 30,
2022, by order of the Revolutionary Prosecutor's Office based in Evin
Prison in Tehran. She was arrested for publishing her interviews with
the father of Mahsa Amini on the Event 24 website in October and
November 2022. She was confined in Ward 209 of Evin.
Before the arrest, Nazila Maroofian, the Rouydad 24 reporter, wrote in a
Twitter post, <They won't let me publish my interview a few days ago
with Mahsa Amini's father. First, they called my father in the city ...
then they called me that there was a warrant for my arrest. If you
publish it, you will be sent to Evin on such and such charges!> Nazila
Maroofian also worked as a reporter in Dideban-e Iran. During the
interrogation in the detention center, she underwent severe pressure and
threats from the interrogators to make forced confessions. And due to
these pressures, she suffered two mild heart strokes.>>

<<Iran executes two more men detained in connection with nationwide
protests.
News Wires - Iran drew international condemnation on Saturday as it
executed two men for killing a paramilitary force member in Novem-ber
during unprecedented protests sparked by Mahsa Amini's death in custody.
The latest hangings double the number of executions to four over the
nationwide unrest, which has escalated since mid- September into calls
for an end to Iran's clerical regime. They also come in defiance of a
campaign by international rights groups for the lives of the two men to
be spared. Judicial news agency Mizan Online reported that <Mohammad
Mehdi Karami and Seyed Mohammad Hosseini, the main perpetrators of the
crime that led to the martyrdom of Ruhollah Ajamian, were hanged this
morning.> Prose-cutors said the 27-year-old militiaman was stripped
naked and killed by a group of mourners who had been paying tribute to a
slain protester, Hadis Najafi. The UN human rights office decried the
executions, which it said followed <unfair trials based on forced
confessions>. <We urge Iran to halt all executions,> it said on Twitter.
....
The European Union said it was <appalled> by the executions.
<This is yet another sign of the Iranian authorities' violent
repression of civilian demonstrations,> the spokesperson for the bloc's
foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell said in a statement, urging an im-mediate
end to death sentences against protesters.>>
