Hundreds of people were arrested in the demonstrations which rocked this province last week. Dozens were killed and hundreds wounded in the clashes.
The mullahs' Intelligence Ministry has dispatched many teams from Tehran and other provinces to interrogate and torture those imprisoned, and make more arrests. The regime has made extensive arrests in the province and the number of those arrested exceeds 1,000.
Mr. Massoud Rajavi, President of the National Council of Resistance of Iran calls on the Human Rights Commission and the UN Security Council and all international humanitarian bodies to take immediate action and bring pressure on the illegitimate regime ruling Iran to prevent the massacre of those arrested in Kermanshah.
