Brave Iranian Prisoner Calls For Regime Overthrow Shortly Before His Execution by franchasng(op): 12:25pm On Mar 31
A BRAVE Iranian prisoner has called for the war-ravaged regime to be overthrown in a defiant video message from the notorious Evin prison taken before he was hanged.

Mohammad Taghavi, 58, called for supporters to bring “the campaign for overthrow [of the regime] to fruition,” shortly before his execution.

He added: You, dear friends, stand at the threshold of history – the door of this land’s history opening toward a bright and luminous future.”

The brave critic was executed alongside Akbar “Shahrokh” Daneshvarkar, 60, a fellow member of the banned opposition party, the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) on Monday morning.

The two political prisoners were arrested in Iran in 2024 accused of taking part “in riots, urban actions, and confrontation with security forces”.

Following their arrests, they suffered months of extreme physical and psychological torture in Evin Prison’s notorious Ward 209 – including beatings, floggings, death threats at gunpoint and prolonged solitary confinement.

They were sentenced to death in hearings that lasted just a few minutes each.

According to Amnesty International, Iranian officials executed the men without providing them or their families advance notice so they could not say their final goodbyes.

In his video message, Taghavi said: “I am Mohammad-Ali Taghavi, 58 years old, a graduate in Graphics from the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Tehran.

“Although about a year has passed since my death sentence was issued, with the passage of time—despite living under the shadow of the gallows—we stand firmer than ever.

“This strength comes from faith in the liberation of the oppressed people, the support of the massive movement advancing under the leadership of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran..

“The truth is that the role of you — as conscious, educated, and professional individuals — in bringing the campaign for overthrow [of the regime] to fruition is unique and irreplaceable.”

In another picture, he holds up a sign which reads: “If the price of staying alive is to renounce the name of the People’s Mojahedin Organisation of Iran then shame on such a life! Let it be yours!”

In a handwritten note smuggled out of prison last year, Daneshvarkar paid tribute to two fellow MEK prisoners Behrouz Ehsani and Mehdi Hassani, who were executed in July.

Unfortunately US that would have helped achieve this, opposition Democrats are mounting serious pressure on Trump to stop the operation in Iran and it seems Trump is yielding to pressure.


You know America is run on pure democratic principles, the President therefore have a limit to what it can do on his own.


I feel really sad ever since a friend in Washington gave me a hint that Trump will most likely end the operation in Iran due to pressure from US Democrats and uninformed Americans trying to be politically correct angry



If US end the operation, it will embolden the terror regime in Iran to do even greater evil going forward, I feel really sad angry

Here we go again. Another round of propaganda being spun by the Anarchists & Bullies when in actual fact, they are all bleeding helplessly from the IRGC’s blows.

I thought the “Orange Baboon” stated that he has decimated all the soldiers in Iran?

He and all his warmongering vultures will learn the hard way that “Persia is the graveyard of Empires”.

I heard an Iranian on radio calling on Trump to please continue strikes on their government. He said even if his home was destroyed in the strikes, Iran should be blamed, not the U.S.

Iranian government murdered 30,000+ of its own people within a few months (mostly women). It takes some level of evil to be backing the Iranian government, the level of evil it took for Babadorians to deny genocide on their own countrymen

Your head is upside down.

THAT IS WHY YOU ARE BLOODTHIRSTY.

Supporting an illegal, Barbaric invasion of a sovereign country IN VIOLATION OF INTERNATIONAL LAW.

A true hero!
May you rest in peace!

To those supporting Iran, just know that you are complicit in his execution. You have blu-d on your hands.

AND THE 4,000 INNOCENT IRANIAN CIVILIANS and rising SLAUGHTERED SO FAR BY THE ILLEGAL, CRIMINAL US INVASION?

Their blood is on YOUR hands.

Just as the blood of 300,000 innocent civilians in Gaza is in YOUR hands.

It's just rather unfortunate that innocent children and people were killed so far in the quest against Iranian leaders, these Iranian leaders are quite brutal against political opponents...

It would shock you to know the west/Zionists installed the Ayatollah after the Iranian Shah Pallavi, nationalized foreign Oil companies operating in Iran at the time.

Now they pretend to be fighting each other, why?
To crash the global economy.

Iran isn't the target. It is you !

SAUDI ARABIA IS MORE BRUTAL.

WHY WON'T YOUR WHITE MASTERS BOMB THEM?

This is an IRANIAN.

But the Nigerian Iranians are saying something else.
Re: Brave Iranian Prisoner Calls For Regime Overthrow Shortly Before His Execution by Olukat(m): 7:58pm On Mar 31
Iran will eventually fall there’s no doubt. You can’t put your citizens to death for opposing your ways of leadership. If such practices were to be in Nigeria you can imagine how many people will be left on Nairaland. Those leaders and their supporters here are evil
