Demonstrations and unrest continued this morning in many parts of Kermanshah province. At 9.30 this morning, hundreds of people staged a demonstration in Paveh. Guards forces have attacked the demonstrators and at least 30 persons have already been arrested.
After 48 hours of silence, the mullahs' religious, terrorist dictatorship attributed the incidents of the past two days to the Mojahedin. In its news edition this noon, Tehran's state-radio said that the Hezbollahis of Kermanshah chant slogans against the Mojahedin to confront the unrest.
Wave of arrests in various cities in this province continues, amounting to hundreds. The number of those wounded is rising. 35 of those wounded yesterday in Javanrood were transferred to Kermanshah.
Following the murder of Molla Mohammad Rabii, a leader of Sunni faith in Kermanshah, popular demonstrations were staged in various cities in this province in the past two days.
Mr. Massoud Rajavi, President of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, hailed the arisen people of Kermanshah province and called on the nation to rise to their assistance. Mr. Rajavi stressed that these demonstrations are but an example of the general public hatred toward the mullahs' illegitimate regime and urged the international community to take immediate measures to secure the release of those arrested.
