A resolution condemning the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran for its ongoing human rights abuses, including its use of politically motivated espionage claims to justify arbitrary detention and executions.
This resolution strongly condemns the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran for its widespread and systematic human rights violations, specifically highlighting its use of politically motivated espionage allegations and vague national security charges. It details how the Iranian regime employs these tactics, along with coerced confessions, to justify the arbitrary detention and execution of political opponents, protesters, and peaceful dissidents. Individuals accused often face a complete denial of due process, lack independent legal counsel, and are subjected to torture or unfair judicial proceedings. The resolution calls for Iran to immediately halt all executions based on politically motivated charges and demands that authorities provide detainees with due process, fair trials, and protection from cruel treatment. It urges the immediate release of all individuals imprisoned solely for peacefully exercising their fundamental freedoms. Furthermore, the resolution expresses support for the Iranian people's pursuit of freedom and encourages the United States and its allies to continue holding Iranian officials accountable through targeted sanctions and international investigations.
