Iran: trials

seven lawyers have been killed in the region of Tabriz.
Sources in Iran told Jerusalempost that the lawyers were killed after representing protestors to the election.
Following they were accused of “disrupting security and encouraging unethical actions against the regime.” The bodies of five lawyers were returned to their families earlier this week.
Three of them died from injuries suffered during their detention, and they were so badly beaten that they were barely recognisable and two were executed on fake drugscharges.
The sources told that protesters in Tabriz held a rally in their memory on Wednesday, carrying flowers and pictures of the men.
In Mashhad two lawyers were executed on pumped up charges of drugstrafficking.
Both lawyers were representing young students detained by the Iranian authorities.
