URGENT: At Least 5 People Including Mohiyedin Ebrahimi At Risk of Execution Within Hours

Iran Human Rights has managed to confirm the identities of five of the prisoners as: Kurdish political prisoner Mohiyedin Ebrahimi and woman prisoner Nasim Niazi, Ashir Abbasnejad, Mohammad Ayoubian and Yasin Rashidi. The latter three were sentenced to death for drug-related charges by the Revolutionary Court. The charges against Nasim Niazi have not been established at the time of writing.

Their families and people who have turned up to protest their executions, are currently gathered outside Urmia Central Prison.

Iran Human Rights recently warned about the imminent execution of Mohiyedin Ebrahimi.
