The world should realise that Tehran’s Mullahs are committing genocide in Baluchistan. Revenge- killing is a crime even by the state. Iranian regime selected 16 prisoners from the Baluch ethnic background because the people who have attack border guards were Baluch.
Friday night's
attack (25/10/20013) in a mountainous region outside Saravan, on the
south-eastern border with Pakistan, left
between 14 to 17 border guard dead numbers were injured according to BBC a
rebel group called Jaish al-Adl had claimed responsibility for the ambush.
According to the chief prosecutor in Zahedan Mohammad
Marzieh, in retaliation, 16 Baluch prisoners who were jailed on different
charges before Jash Al-Adl formed were linked
to the group and hanged early Saturday.
The judiciary official have not published the full list of those who
have been hanged in Zahedan the capital of Sistan and Baluchestan Province. It is not clear if the all executed men were
already in jail in the Zahedan or were rounded up from streets after border Guards
were attacked; those who have been hanged on Saturday were not connected to the
border attack.
The people of the western Baluchistan are ethnically Baluch and
religiously Sunni. Iran is a Shiite majority state. The Iranian invaded
Baluchistan in 1927 and annexed Baluchistan into Persia. The Iranian government has openly
uses their coercive force to subjugate the Baluch Nation.
The population in Sistan-Baluchistan are ethnically Baluch
and adherent of Sunni doctrine of Islam they have been complaining of
discrimination by Iran's Shitte establishment that govern Baluchistan from Tehran
like a colony.
The life, dignity, liberty and the Baluch property is not
safe in Iran. Assassinations, summary justices, Shiite judges, social stigma, collective
punishment, humiliation and hanging people in groups in public arrogant Persian
elites are driving the Baluch in Iran into desperate situation.
The Baluch language, religion, culture is different from the Persian;
the Baluch are discriminated on the bases of their religion as well as their
culture. The most Iranian cities lack a worship places for Sunni sect of Islam.
The Baluch have remained at the bottom of the Iranian social hierarchy; the
Baluch youth feel it there is no hope in sight.
The world should realise that Tehran’s Mullahs are committing
genocide in Baluchistan. Revenge- killing is a crime even by the state. Iranian
regime selected 16 prisoners from the Baluch ethnic background because the
people who have attack border guards were Baluch.
