Mullah Mostafa PourMohammadi, the Justice Minister of
Rouhani’s cabinet, in a fiercely worded attack on Dr. Ahmed Shaheed, UN Special Rapporteur on human rights violations in Iran, called him
a “corrupt person” and said: “Ahmed Shaheed is not even a jurist and he has
entered the arena as a political operative. From the outset, he has taken a
stand against us; in essence we are against having a Rapporteur.” (IRGC news
agency Fars - January 16).
Mullah Mostafa PourMohammadi, the principal member of
the three-member “Death Committee” and one of the most senior officials
responsible for the 1988 massacre of 30,000 political prisoners, added: “West’s
main problem with us is the issue of human rights; nuclear and terrorism issues
are secondary matters.”
The Iranian Resistance calls on the UN
Secretary-General and other relevant UN bodies to strongly condemn clerical
regime’s abusive aggression against the Special Rapporteur. Likewise, two
months ago following a report by Dr. Shaheed, Rouhani’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs
spokesperson set aside all “moderation” and “engagement” mottos and called “the
appointment of Special Rapporteur on human rights as an insult to the great
Iranian nation (meaning the religious fascism ruling Iran)” and said, “We do
not recognize him... Moreover, the prepared report has described the human
rights situation in Iran with political motivates and is utterly unfair.”
Regime’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson
flagrantly said “Terrorist and violence-inclined groups whose hands are tainted
with blood of the innocent are generally the sources for this report and
therefore the said report lacks any legal credibility”. Meanwhile, despite
repeated requests by the international community, the clerical regime has not
allowed Mr. Ahmed Shaheed and UN Thematic Rapporteurs on human rights into
Iran.
