NCRI - Members of the Anglo-Iranian community and supporters of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) in the United Kingdom plan to stage a sit-in protest on the anniversary of the massacre of 30,000 political prisoners in Iran in 1988 and will go on a 3-day hunger strike in London outside Downing Street in solidarity with political prisoners and the victims of torture and execution inside Iran.
In the summer of 1988, some 30,000 political prisoners, the vast majority affiliated to the main opposition group People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI or MEK), were summarily and extra-judicially executed by the mullahs’ regime. The majority of those executed were either serving prison sentences for their political activities or had already finished their sentences but were still kept in prison.
