Hossein Khezri was hanged in the morning in the Orumieh Central Prison.
Hossein Khezri who was born in 1982 was sentenced to death on charges of acting against national security by the first branch of the Orumieh Islamic Revolutionary Court. His sentence was upheld by the 10th branch of the court of review in the Western Azarbaijan Province and the 31st branch of the Supreme Court…
He was hanged without the knowledge of his lawyer or family and the sentence was carried out in secret in Orumieh Prison.
State-run Iranian TV said that Hossein Khezri’s was charged with ‘participating in an armed operation and killing a security agent in the Gol Sheikhan Base in the border region of Orumieh in 2004”.
Hossein Khezri had denied all the charges and had said in a visit with his family that intelligence agents were trying to force him to give false confession in front of cameras. (Human Rights Activists in Iran – Jan. 15, 2011)

Feared execution of Iranian Kurdish man: Hossein Khezri
Hossein Khezri, a member of Iran’s Kurdish minority, is feared to have been executed on 15 January 2011 in north-western Iran after being convicted of “enmity against God” on account of his membership of the Party for Free Life of Kurdistan (PJAK). The authorities have announced that a PJAK member was executed on 15 January 2011 but without naming the individual.
Members of Hossein Khezri’s family visited him in Oromieh Central Prison on 5 January 2011. He told him that the authorities had pressured him to “confess” on camera to participating in armed opposition to the government and to killing several people but that he had refused to do so, stating that he had not killed anyone.
On 13 January 2011, officials of the Oromieh Revolutionary Court informed his brother that the order for Hossein Khezri’s execution had been received from the Prosecutor’s Office. When the family sought to visit him, they were not able to do so and were told to return on 15 January. When they did so that day, they were again unable to see him and later heard that a judicial body of West Azerbaijan Province had announced the execution of an unnamed member of PJAK. They fear that this may have been Hossein Khezri but, if so, they have not been told officially, nor given his body or personal effects.
Hossein Khezri was arrested in Kermanshah in 2008. He acknowledged undertaking political activities but denied any involvement in violence. His death sentence, passed by the Revolutionary Court in Oromieh, was upheld in August 2009. In March 2010, his request for an investigation into his allegations of torture was turned down.
Zeynab Jalalian, 28, another member of Iran’s Kurdish minority, remains at risk of execution after conviction of similar charges. She continues to be in poor health, possibly as a result of torture or other ill-treatment in prison…
The UN Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions said in a 2006 report on Transparency and the Imposition of the Death Penalty that “a lack of transparency both undermines due process rights and constitutes inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment. Persons sentenced to death, their families, and their lawyers should be provided with timely and reliable information on the procedures and timing of appeals, clemency petitions, and executions.”
After the family’s visit on 5 January, Hossein Khezri’s whereabouts were unknown. Following reports that he may have been transferred to Tehran for execution, his lawyer told the Committee of Human Rights Reporters, that under Iranian law, a death sentence can be implemented in the same city in which the sentence was handed down, and there is no need for transfer to another city, and he hoped that his client’s transfer was for further review of his case rather than for execution. He also said that he was waiting to hear if the Supreme Court would accept his request for a final review of Hossein Khezri’s conviction and sentence, but until he was notified of their decision, there would be nothing to stop the local judiciary carrying out the execution.
In a letter, written from Section 12 of Oromieh Prison in October 2010, Hossein Khezri said that he was tortured for 49 days in detention centres belonging to the Revolutionary Guards in Kermanshah and Oromieh, north-west Iran, and also at a Ministry of Intelligence detention facility, by methods including beatings; threats against himself and his family; kicks to the genitals and legs; and harsh baton blows to the entire body, causing bruising and inflammation. He said that he complained about his treatment and was then moved for three days to an Intelligence Ministry facility in February 2010 where he was interrogated about his complaint. His father died from a heart attack after hearing that his son had been moved from prison, apparently because he feared that Hossein Khezri had been executed. Hossein Khezri also said he was told if he “confessed” on TV, his death sentence would be commuted to imprisonment, but that he had refused to do so. He added: “The time of my execution has not been told to me, I do not know if it will be tomorrow, or the day after, or tonight, and I am not allowed visitors and cannot even let any one know that I am still alive”.
Zeynab Jalalian was sentenced to death around January 2009 by Kermanshah Revolutionary Court. Before that, she had spent eight months in a Ministry of Intelligence detention facility, where she says she was tortured. During that time her family had no information concerning her conditions, treatment or fate. She was not granted access to a lawyer during her trial, which she says lasted only a few minutes. Zeynab Jalalian’s death sentence was confirmed by the Supreme Court on 26 November 2009. In December 2010, a witness who was imprisoned with Zeynab Jalalian reported that Zeynab Jalalian had been flogged on the soles of her feet and subsequently was struck on the head with a broken bottle, causing her scalp to bleed profusely. She is in poor health, apparently due to her reported torture and other ill-treatment in prison. (Amnesty International – Jan. 20, 2011)


Deaths in custody

Kurd political prisoner probably killed under torture – report
There has been no news for the past seven months that a death row political prisoner is still alive in prison despite his family’s appeals (to relevant security officials and institutions). According to a credible source, Kurd political prisoner Aziz Mohammadzadeh who was sentenced to death in a Saqez court on charges of being a member of a Kurd opposition party and acting against national security went on a hunger strike in protest to his sentence and was transferred to an unknown location by security forces. Months after his transfer and despite his family’s constant appeals to officials, there is still no news on his condition and whereabouts.
This 26 year old political prisoner from Baneh was arrested on October 13, 2009 by security forces in this town and was taken to the Baneh Detention Center. After three months of abuse and severe torture, he was taken to the Saqez Prison.
According to informed sources, Aziz Mohammadzadeh has been killed under the severe torture by intelligence agents while on a hunger strike. All government institutions (and prisons) have said no such death row Kurd political prisoner exists in their prison. This has increased the concerns of his family and friends.

اقدام فوري عفو بين‌الملل درباره حسين خضري و زينب جلاليان
حسين خضري، يکي از اعضاي اقليت کرد ايران، بيم آن مي‌رود که او را در روز 15ژانويه 2011 در شمال غربي ايران به جرم محاربه با خدا و عضويت در حزب آزاد کردستان، پژاک، اعدام کرده باشند. دولتمردان گفته‌اند که يکي از اعضاي پژاک در تاريخ 15ژانويه اعدام شده است.
اعضاي خانواده خضري او را در زندان مرکزي اروميه در تاريخ 5ژانويه ملاقات کردند. او به آنها گفته است که مقامات وي را براي اعتراف و رفتن در مقابل دوربين تحت فشار قرار داده‌اند که اعتراف کند در فعاليتهاي مسلحانه عليه دولت شرکت داشته و چندين نفر را نيز کشته است اما وي از اين کار سر باز زده و تأکيد کرده است که کسي را نکشته است.
روز 13ژانويه، مقامات سپاه پاسداران اروميه به برادر حسين اطلاع دادند که حکم اعدام حسين توسط دادستاني ابلاغ شده است. وقتي خانواده خواهان ملاقات با وي شدند ديگر موفق نشدند و به آنها گفته شد که روز 15ژانويه برگردند. وقتي در همين روز اين خانواده به زندان مراجعه کردند به آنها گفته شد که امکان ملاقات با حسين را ندارند و بعداً نيز از طرف دادگاه به اطلاع رسانده شد که يکي از اعضاي پژاک اعدام شده است. بيم آن مي‌رود که اين نفر حسين خضري باشد، اگر چنين باشد، اعدام او نه رسماًًًًًًًًًًًًً اعلام شده است و نه جسد او تحويل داده شده است.
حسين خضري در سال 2008 در کرمانشاه، به جرم فعاليتهاي سياسي دستگير شد ولي او بارها تأکيد کرده بود که در هيچ عمل خشونت‌آميزي شرکت نداشته است. حکم اعدام او توسط دادگاه اروميه صادر شده و در اوت 2009 به او ابلاغ شد. در مارس 2010 درخواست او براي کيفر خواست و تحقيق رد شد و تحت شکنجه قرار گرفت.
زينب جلاليان، 28ساله يکي ديگر از اقليتهاي کرد ايران است که تهديد اعدام او وجود دارد، اتهامات او مانند حسين خضري مي‌باشد. در اثر شکنجه‌ها وضعيت جسماني او خوب نيست و دچار بيماريهاي جسمي متعدد شده است. (سايت عفو بين‌الملل- 30/11/89)
