Sunni Leader Of Zahedan Reiterates Demands For Verdict On Bloody Friday

Wednesday, 03/27/2024

Mowlavi Abdolhamid, the Sunni Friday prayer leader of Zahedan, reiterated his demands for a final verdict on the tragic Bloody Friday massacre.

Addressing the injured and families of the deceased from the bloody Friday massacres of Zahedan and Khash, he told them, "The injustice is incompatible with the Islamic, and humanitarian standards."

On September 30, 2022, state security forces targeted those planning to hold a protest gathering after Friday prayers in Zahedan, resulting in over 100 deaths as reported by human rights sources. Another protest on November 4, 2023, in Khash county, led to the deaths of 16 more citizens.

Abdolhamid has persistently called for the trial of the perpetrators and organizers of the massacres, reaffirming, "Those who suffered in the incident were innocent."

The Baluch activists campaign reported that two sessions of the trial were held in February. However, the presiding judge, without hearing the statements of the families of the dead, asked them to accept compensation, which they opposed.
