Execution of Seyyed Mohammad Hosseini and Mohammad Mehdi Karami this morning

Seyyed Mohammad Hosseini, 39, and Mohammad Mehdi Karami, 22, were executed this morning, Saturday, January 7, by the government of the Islamic Republic.

Seyyed Mohammad Hosseini, 39, a martial artist, and Mohammad Mehdi Karami, 22, a karate champion, were arrested during the 40th anniversary of the Najafi Hadith in the city of Karaj. The Karaj Revolutionary Court had charged them with corruption on earth and warring against the country, and had sentenced them to death.

The sentence of these two innocent young men, who had only protested for justice, was carried out this morning. Mohammad Hosseini's parents are no longer alive and he had no one to be his voice and inform him of the unjust sentence that had been issued to him. Mohammad Hosseini had said in his defense during the court session that he did not accept some of the charges against him. But as usual, the Islamic Republic government, like other detainees, forced a confession from him through extensive torture.

Mohammad Mehdi Karami was also executed this morning while on hunger strike, and unfortunately, he was denied access to his family.

The criminal regime of the Islamic Republic is afraid of the existence of heroes like Seyyed Mohammad Hosseini and Mohammad Mehdi Karami, and every day it either shoots or executes one of these heroes who protest for freedom and justice.

How will the government of the Islamic Republic respond to the blood that has been shed throughout Iran?
