Iran: At least 900 arrested or flogged for not fasting in Ramadan

The Iranian regime's repressive forces have arrested and flogged at least 900 in the cities of Shiraz, Tabriz, Hamadan and Ilam alone, according to the reports published in state-run media in Iran.
Deputy Prosecutor in the city of Shiraz, Ali Keshavarz, confirmed that 500 have been arrested in Shiraz for not fasting. Of these 500, verdicts were issued for 480 cases within 24 hours. Most sentences were lashing and they were carried out by the henchmen from “Implementation of Verdicts Unit”. Many of the sentences, particularly against the youth, were carried out in public. Moreover, close to 3000 received “verbal or written warnings” and were subjected to street interrogations or persecution by the oppressive Basij forces.
According to this official, in Shiraz alone, “20 government and non-government organs” and 248 patrol teams carry out this oppressive scheme under the pretext of “fighting non-observance of fasting”.
Also, according to the commander of the security forces of Hamadan Rassoul Moradi, 100 were arrested by the Basij Force for not fasting. His deputy stated that 700 groups from the Basij or suppressive forces of the regime “have been formed in Hamadan to promote virtue and prevent vice to fight those who do not observe fasting in public”.
On June 22, ninety-two boys and girls were arrested in Shahriar International Hotel of Tabriz on similar charges. Many of the arrestees were travelers that based on Islamic regulations were not in a condition to fast.
In the first week of Ramadan in Ilam alone, security forces arrested 200 and within a day barbaric decrees to flog them were issued.
Qazvin’s Prosecutor Esmail Sadeqi Niaraki stated on June 23: “Those who do not observe fasting not only receive their sentences on the day of their arrest, but their sentences are carried out as well. May these measures please… the supreme leader.”
The unparalleled ratcheting up of suppression in the society on the pretext of not fasting shows the fear of the religious fascism ruling Iran of uprisings by a people that the great majority of them are unable to support the most rudimentary needs of their livelihood and that of their families particularly as various internal and external crises, especially the nuclear talks impasse, increasingly tighten the noose around regime’s neck.
Mullah Sediqi who is close to Khamenei expressed concern in the Friday prayer show of June 26 regarding the outcome of the nuclear talks and said: “The fate of the country is hanging on this. This is a perilous and critical turn in the history.”

Seven Mexican Cops Charged with Torture



MEXICO CITY – Seven police officers are charged with torturing suspects to elicit incriminating information about 22 civilians killed by Mexican soldiers in a June 2014 incident that has become known as the Tlatlaya massacre, the Attorney General’s Office in the central state of Mexico said.

The AG office said the charges were filed based on a recommendation from Mexico’s independent National Human Rights Commission, or CNDH, which conducted an investigation of the killings and of authorities’ handling of the case.

The conclusions of the CNDH regarding the conduct of the seven officers coincided with the findings of the AG office’s own probe, the office said in a statement.

Four of the accused officers were taken into custody and authorities are waiting for a judge to approve arrest warrants for the other three, according to the statement.

The cops physically and psychologically abused three suspects in pursuit of information that would tie the 22 people killed by troops to a criminal organization based in neighboring Michoacan state, the AG office said.

Mexico’s defense department initially said after the June 30, 2014, incident in the town of Tlatlaya that 22 suspected members of a kidnapping gang died in a gunfight with army troops.

But one of the three survivors of the episode subsequently told Esquire magazine that only one of the civilians died in the confrontation, while the others were summarily executed after surrendering and undergoing interrogation.

The federal Attorney General’s Office said last October that 14 people had died in the firefight and the other eight had been killed after they surrendered.

But in a subsequent document, obtained by La Jornada newspaper via a freedom of information request, federal investigators concluded that 11 of the victims were “practically executed,” while five others died while in “instinctive defensive” postures.

The troops fired 160 gunshots, while the civilians only fired 12, three of which wounded army personnel, according to forensic studies cited in the document.

Eight soldiers who participated in the Tlatlaya operation were detained last September.
