Human Rights News from Iran

Wednesday, February 02, 2005

2005 Annual meeting of the UN Commission on Human Rights is on the way

. We demand:
>>> Condemnation of the widespread, planned and
Systematic violation of Human Rights
>>> Continuous monitoring of Human Rights Situation by the nomination
of a permanent special Rapporteur in Iran

Human Rights activists around the world


We, the “Iranian Human Rights Activist Groups in EU and North America”, are sixteen Iranian non-profit voluntary associations in Europe and North America with the main objective to improve human rights in Iran with a view to building a fair and a free society.
Following the continuous efforts of Human Rights organizations as well as political and social activists (both in Iran and internationally), the 59th U.N. General Assembly of the United Nations, on December 20th 2004, approved a resolution denouncing the Human Rights situation in Iran.
Nevertheless, in 2004 Iranians continued to face the continuation of the widespread, planned and systematic violation of their Human Rights. In our report 2004(October 2003 and October 2004), we have listed 1153 cases of Human Rights violations. According to this information, the majority of the cases listed in this report are: the violation of rights of political and social activists, the violation of the rights of students and freedom of speech of the media.

 448 cases concerning political and social activists;
 291 cases concerning students;
 275 cases concerning the media and freedom of speech;
...........
 Condemn the Iranian regime for the widespread, planned and systematic violation of Human Rights in Iran.
 Establish a continuous monitoring of Human Rights by the nomination of a permanent Special Rapporteur in Iran.
