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.

<<Manouchehr Fallah Faces Execution After Forced Confession in Iran
Manouchehr Fallah, a 43-year-old father from Rasht, faces execution following an 18-month detention marked by forced confession and denial of legal representation. Fallah, who worked as a tattoo artist and supported himself through various manual labor and sales jobs, was arrested at Rasht Airport on June 17, 2023. The charges against him include <waging war against God> through alleged actions against national security, specifically the placement of two sound bombs near a courthouse in Rasht. According to a confidential source familiar with the case, authorities used severe pressure tactics during Fallah’s detention. Most notably, security forces detained his brother-in-law as leverage to extract a confession. While Fallah remained silent about his own treatment in custody - reportedly to preserve the morale of fellow inmates - he has acknowledged that his confession was obtained under torture. The case has taken a significant toll on Fallah’s family, especially his daughter, who turned 18 on February 8. She has been unable to see her father for months, adding a personal dimension to the broader human rights concerns raised by the case. Throughout the entire judicial process, Fallah was denied access to legal representation - a fundamental right under international law. This denial of counsel, combined with allegations of a coerced confession and the detention of family members as leverage, raises serious questions about the fairness of the proceedings that led to his death sentence.
Fallah has been tried in two separate cases.
The first was reviewed by Branch 3 of the Rasht Revolutionary Court, presided over by Mehdi Rasekhi, where he was sentenced to seven months and 16 days in prison for <propaganda against the Islamic Republic> and one year, three months, and one day for <insulting the Supreme Leader.> These verdicts were issued in December 2023, and after submitting to the ruling, part of his sentence was reduced. He ultimately completed his prison term in this case in April 2024.
His second case, however, involved the charge of <waging war against God> through <actions against national security> and <damaging the judiciary and IRGC intelligence buildings in Gilan.> This case remained pending for months in Branch 2 of the Rasht Revolutionary Court. A source familiar with Fallah’s case told IranWire that he remained in legal limbo for months, with the court deliberately delaying the trial. Finally, in December 2024, his court session was held via video conference, after which he was sentenced to death. The source explained that although Fallah completed his previous prison term in April 2024, the judiciary delayed issuing a verdict in his other case. His situation became so dire that he went on a hunger strike for about a month. Several of his fellow inmates also joined the strike in solidarity, protesting the uncertainty and prolonged suspension of his case. Following this hunger strike, his death sentence was formally communicated to his lawyers on February 2. A former cellmate who spoke to IranWire confirmed that Fallah was denied access to a lawyer for months and was tortured into confessing. “He didn’t talk much about the torture he endured, but he did say that he had been tortured,” the source said. Regarding the accusations against Fallah, the source added: “They claim he detonated two sound bombs in front of the judiciary and IRGC intelligence buildings. Even if that were true, by their own admission, it happened at night when no one was around, and no person or property was harmed. “They accused him of waging war against God even though no one was frightened, let alone harmed. There is no evidence in his file - no witness, no complainant, nothing.” Describing Fallah’s personality, the former inmate told IranWire, “Prison food is awful - often undercooked. Manouchehr would make it better for everyone without expecting anything in return. “He’d buy garlic, onions, potatoes, and tomatoes whenever he could and add them to the prison food to improve the taste. “He taught others how to cook. He built a family inside the ward. He’s incredibly kind, always cheerful, full of energy. He treats everyone with love and respect. He has a strong spirit and is always the first to help a fellow prisoner in need.”
Fallah’s kindness and compassion have already drawn public attention. Many former cellmates have spoken out against his death sentence.>>

<<A Death-Row Political Prisoner’s Letter to His Daughter on Her Sixteenth Birthday
Manouchehr Fallah, a death-row political prisoner, writes a letter filled with love to his only daughter, Asal, on her sixteenth birthday. In this deeply emotional message, he speaks of the hardships of captivity and the shadow of his impending execution, a letter that is not only a testament to suffering but also a legacy of resilience and hope.
My Dearest Asal,
One day, the sun of freedom will rise over this land, a dawn that demands a heavy price. This time, fate has chosen me to pay for it. But remember, hope never dies, and one day, our homeland will break free from the chains of oppression and tyranny.
Asal, my beloved daughter,
The day you first opened your eyes to this world; it was as if the entire universe became brighter for me. Your first cries, your innocent laughter, the moment you first spoke and called me “Baba,” your first steps, even your falls, became the very meaning of my existence. Every moment with you rekindled hope and love in my heart. Now, you have grown. You stand on the threshold of a new world, while our homeland is trapped in a bitter and endless winter. And I…
I wait for you from behind these cold prison bars in Lakan.
My dear daughter,
I know this question has crossed your mind many times: Why my father? What has he done to deserve prison? Asal, my love, they have imprisoned me for a crime I never committed. I have never stolen from the people, never plundered wealth, never taken bread from the tables of the hungry. I have not stolen oil fields, nor have I sat on a judge’s bench to issue unjust verdicts. My only crime was to raise my voice against poverty, inequality, and injustice, to refuse to stay silent in the face of so much cruelty. But in my struggle, I have never caused harm to anyone, nor have I used violence. And now, on the eve of your birthday, Judge Mohammad Ali Darvish Goftar has informed me of my death sentence, perhaps hoping to break my spirit. But he does not know that the path I have chosen was not learned from books, but from life itself, from the suffering of my people. Poverty and injustice have been my teachers, and now that this awareness has taken root in my soul, I consider silence a sin I cannot bear.
My dearest Asal,
One day, the sun of freedom will shine upon our land, but only when its price has been paid. This time, that price is mine to bear. But know this, hope never dies, and one day, our homeland will be free from the grip of tyranny.
My one and only, my sweet Asal, Happy Birthday.

What You Need to Know About Political Prisoner, Manouchehr Fallah
Political prisoner Manouchehr Fallah was arrested on June 17, 2023. Despite a bail order issued by the investigator after his interrogation, judicial authorities and officials at Lakan Prison in Rasht refused to finalize his release. The Revolutionary Court of Rasht sentenced him to 22 months and 17 days in prison on charges of “insulting Ali Khamenei and propaganda against the regime.” On December 11, 2024, Fallah was tried again, this time by Branch 2 of the Revolutionary Court of Rasht, via video conference. The new charge against him was “waging war against God (Moharebeh) through actions against national security”, related to allegations of damaging judiciary buildings and IRGC intelligence offices in Gilan province. Throughout the legal proceedings, he was denied access to a lawyer, and judicial officials prevented legal representatives from entering the case to defend him.
On Sunday, February 2, 2025, Fallah’s lawyers were officially informed of his death sentence.>>
