Eine Koalition von 152 prominenten internationalen Experten und NRO haben den Hohen Kommissar der Vereinten Nationen für Menschenrechte Volker Türk aufgerufen, in dem Fall des politischen Gefangenen Behrouz Ehsani, 69, und in dem von Mehdi Hassani, 48, zu intervenieren. Die beiden Männer, die in einem widerrechtlichen Verfahren verurteilt worden sind, wurden heute unter Zwang aus dem Evin Gefängnis in das Ghesel Hesar Gefängnis überführt, wo die meisten Hinrichtungen im Iran vollstreckt werden.
In dem Brief wird betont, dass diese plötzliche Überführung, die verbunden sei mit einer Unterbrechung der Kommunikationswege, nahelege, dass die iranischen Behörden ihre heimliche Hinrichtung planen. Ehsani und Hassani wurden im September 2024 vom Zweig 26 des Teheraner Revolutionsgerichts wegen der Anklagen der „Rebellion“, „Führen des Kriegs gegen Gott“ und „Mitgliedschaft in der Organisation der Volksmudschahedin des Iran (PMOI)“ zum Tode verurteilt. Das Urteil erfolgte, während gleichzeitig glaubwürdig berichtet wird, dass gefoltert und die Standards fairer Prozesse nicht eingehalten wurden; damit wurden die Verpflichtungen des Iran zum Handeln nach den Menschenrechten verletzt.
Der Brief hebt auch den weiteren Zusammenhang hervor, in dem die zunehmende Anwendung der Todesstrafe für die politische Repression zu sehen sei – mit etwa 1000 Gefangenen, die allein im Jahr 2024 hingerichtet wurden. Sowohl Ehsani als auch Hassani haben sich lautstark gegen die Todesstrafe eingesetzt und sich an der Kampagne „Nein zu den Hinrichtungen am Dienstag“ beteiligt, die in 34 Gefängnissen im ganzen Land Widerstand mobilisiert hat.
Die Unterzeichner fordern Türk auf, die geplanten Hinrichtungen zu verurteilen, internationalen Druck auf den Iran zu organisieren und den Zugang von unabhängigen Beobachtern zu verlangen, die die Bedingungen für politische Gefangene begutachten. Der Appell betont, dass die Weltgemeinschaft umgehend aktiv werden müsse, um diese Hinrichtungen zu verhindern, die als Teil der systematischen Unterdrückung von Dissens durch den Iran bezeichnet wird.
„Die Zeit drängt“, schließt der Brief und ruft die VN und die globalen Führer auf, entschieden etwas zu unternehmen gegen „dreiste Verletzungen der Menschenrechte“, wie es dort heißt.
Euer Ehren Volker Türk
Hoher Kommissar für Menschrechte bei den Vereinten Nationen

DRINGEND – MIT E-MAIL
- Januar 2025
Sehr geehrter Herr Hoher Kommissar Türk,
wir appellieren dringend an Sie mit der Bitte um Ihre Intervention, um die politischen Gefangenen Behrous Ehsani, 69, und Mehdi Hassani, 48, zu retten, die von Hinrichtung bedroht sind Ihr Todesurteil wurde am 7. Januar 2025 vom Obersten Gericht des Iran bestätigt nach einem ungerechten Prozess mit Anklagen, die sich auf ihren politischen Aktivismus beziehen. Am 26. Januar 2026 wurden beide unter Zwang vom Evin Gefängnis in das Ghesel Hessar verlegt, wo die meisten Hinrichtungen stattfinden. Die Umstände sind verdächtig und führten zu Protesten von Mitgefangenen. Diese Verlegung mit der Unterbrechung der Kommunikationswege legt nahe, dass die Behörden ihre geheime Hinrichtung planen.
Die beiden Männer wurden zunächst am 26. September 2024 in einem ungerechten Prozess unter dem Vorsitz des Richters Iman Afshari vom Zweig 26 des Teheraner Revolutionsgerichts verurteilt. Zu den Anklagen gehörten „Rebellion (Baghi), Krieg führen gegen Gott (moharebeh), Verbreitung von Verderbnis auf Erden (efsad fiharz)., Mitgliedschaft in der Organisation der Volksmudschahedin und illegaler Besitz von Waffen und Munition“,
Die Urteile wurden nach glaubwürdigen Berichten verhängt im Anschluss an physische und psychische Folter während ihrer Haft im Trakt 209, nachdem sie Ende 2022 festgenommen worden waren. Ein fairer Prozess wurde ihnen verwehrt, ihre Appelle allesamt missachtet unter Verletzung der Pflichten des Iran nach der internationalen Gesetzgebung zu den Menschenrechten. Es ist alarmierend, dass die iranischen Behörden im vergangenen Jahr annähernd 1000 Gefangene hingerichtet und damit Massenhinrichtungen benutzt haben, um die Bevölkerung zu terrorisieren und Dissens zu unterdrücken.
Sowohl Herr Ehsani als auch Herr Hassani haben sich seit langer Zeit für Gerechtigkeit und Menschenrechte eingesetzt. Ihre Teilnahme an der jahrelangen Kampagne „Nein zu Hinrichtungen dienstags“, die sich auf 34 Gefängnisse landesweit ausgebreitet hat, spiegelt ihr Engagement zum Widerstand gegen die Todesstrafe und ihr Eintreten für einen Systemwandel im Iran wieder.
Wir fordern Sie respektvoll auf, Ihre Führungsrolle zu benutzen, um:
- die drohende Hinrichtung von Behrous Ehesani und Mehdi Hassani zu verurteilen und die iranischen Behörden aufzurufen, diese Todesurteile unverzüglich aufzuheben;
- die international Gemeinschaft dafür zu mobilisieren, auf den Iran Druck auszuüben, dass er sich an seine Verpflichtungen nach den internationalen Menschenrechten zu halten habe und damit aufhören müsse, die Todesstrafe als Werkzeug für politische Unterdrückung zu benutzen;
- um dringenden Zugang unabhängiger Beobachter zu ersuchen, damit die Umstände von politischen Gefangenen im Iran begutachtet werden. Die internationale Gemeinschaft kann nicht in Schweigen verharren angesichts solcher dreister Verletzungen der Menschenrechte. Die Zeit drängt und wir fordern Sie in allem Respekt auf, entschieden und umgehend zu handeln, um diese Hinrichtungen zu verhindern. Danke für Ihre Aufmerksamkeit für diesen dringenden Appell.
