Iran Resistance on Grossly Unreported Number of Executions inside Iran with Former olitical prisoner and Member at NCRI Shirin Nariman

Iran’s human rights record remains under intense scrutiny as reports indicate a dramatic rise in executions across the country, a trend that many critics say has received far less international attention than other developments in the region. Former political prisoner and National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) member Shirin Nariman joins us to discuss what opposition groups describe as a deeply troubling escalation in state executions, including cases that are allegedly carried out with limited transparency and little global media coverage. Nariman will examine the impact on Iranian families, the regime’s use of capital punishment as a tool of repression, and why human rights advocates are urging the international community to pay closer attention to the growing number of executions taking place inside Iran. Recent reports from both opposition organizations and independent human rights groups indicate execution numbers have reached some of the highest levels seen in decades.
