URGENT¡!
January 24th 2013
H.E. Ayatollah Sadegh Larijani, Head of the Judiciary
Tehran
ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF IRAN
Your Excellency:
With deep consternation I have heard of the sad news that Mohammad Ali Amouri, Sayed Jaber Alboshoka and his brother Sayed Mokhtar Alboshoka, and teachers Hashem Sha’bani Amouri and Hadi Rashidi (or Rashedi), may be at imminent risk of execution.
Probably you are aware of the fact that the men had been arrested in connection with their peaceful activities on behalf of Iran’s Ahwazi Arab minority. Two of the men were shown “confessing” on a government television channel before the trial. All five men were denied access to a lawyer and their families for the first nine months of their detention. All five are believed to have been tortured or otherwise ill-treated.
Please let me remind you that under Article 38 of the Iranian Constitution and Article 9 of the Law on Respect for Legitimate Freedoms and Safeguarding Citizens’ Rights, all forms of torture for the purpose of obtaining “confessions” are prohibited. Iran’s Penal Code also provides for the punishment of officials who torture citizens in order to obtain “confessions”. I would also like to point out that obliging somebody to confess transmitting this on television means not complying with Iran’s obligation to guarantee just trials and thus complying with article 14 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, to which it is a state party and also violate Iranian law, including Article 37 of the Constitution, Article 2 of the 2004 Law on Respect for Legitimate Freedoms and Safeguarding Citizens’ Rights and Note One to Article 188 of Iran’s Criminal Code of Procedure which criminalizes the publishing of the name and identity of a convict in the media before a final sentence has been passed.
For all the reasons I have exposed, I WOULD LIKE TO ASK YOU:
-To stop the executions of Mohammad Ali Amouri, Sayed Jaber Alboshoka, Sayed Mokhtar Alboshoka, Hashem Sha’bani Amouri and Hadi Rashidi (or Rashedi), overturn their death sentences and grant them retrials in proceedings which comply with fair trial standards, without recourse to the death penalty;
-To disclose the whereabouts of the five men, ensure they are protected from torture and other ill-treatment, urging them to investigate allegations that they were tortured, bring those responsible to justice and disregard as evidence in court “confessions” that may have been coerced;
-To ensure that the men are granted any medical attention they may require, and are allowed immediate and regular contact with their lawyers and families.
Hoping that you will be able to deal with my request as early as possible, I look forward to receiving a favourable reply and remain
Yours sincerely,
