Declaration
to all of free people and human right defenders,
Regretfully, we have to announce a lot , today In Iran , nobody has legal rights
Including human rights defenders, lawyers, journalists, artists, workers, students, children, and especially women and girls, Because the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran are thinking only to Governors, security guards, henchmen, for their survival .
The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, based on the principles and rules of the Islamic Jurisdiction and be certainty of these rules, the way closed to any correction of laws related to human rights, especially for women.
And surprisingly, Women who work They also fight against women and they promote anti-women rules , Discrimination and gender-based violence.
Considering the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women And How it rules We remind it , A draft was presented to the parliament 11 years ago , That’s one month ago was Still on the files of the Judiciary.
The bill includes 5 chapters 100 articles to prevent injustice in family relationships And the elimination of oppression and violence against women in the family arena.
Eventually on 12th October, Ms. Masoumeh Ebtekar, Vice President for Women and Family Affairs The judiciary has sent The Government’s proposed Bill to counter violence against women for consultation in Qom,
she’s about why The Government’s Bill should be sent In parliament, she will say to Qom: “The centers operating in the Qom province about women and family are been consulted by the judiciary”.
Ms. Tayebeh Siyavashi, a member of the women’s parliament fraction. She has been reported The removal of 41 articles from the bill, And it’s because of the “interference” of these article with the Islamic Penal Code, The opposite woman says: The bill on the prohibition of violence against women is based on unlimited women’s rights And did not consider the violent behavior of women against men, And with the irregular defense of women, Raises the incidence of female violence against men, That is,we have no privacy policy And you should be careful about the eyes and hands of the law and the judge, no one tell a woman in her family one word against her thought.
Ms. Zahra Ayatollahi, chairman of the Women’s Social Cultural Council of the Supreme Council of Cultural Revolution, also commented last year that The bill’s formulators have “modeled on UN documents and Western laws.”
According to research conducted in a few years ago, 66 percent of Iranian women said From the very beginning of their common life at least once Have been under violent.
According to a Forensic medicine report,Forensic examination of a number of reports related to the conflict with the subject of spouse abuse within less than a decade of close to 50 per cent have increased And in 1995, it reached 77,280 cases across Iran.
We reminded that unfortunately in today’s Iran, girls and women due to the lack of a supportive law or, in most cases, particularly in the small towns, family violence have accepted and
They even refuse to express a legal complaint Because they know that they will ultimately be convicted under current laws, the Iranian women and girls today, along with these kinds of discrimination and humiliations, other anti-women laws, all kinds of restrictions and injustices, deprivation of the right to inherit, and even the supervision of their children, educational exclusions ..they incur , Because their defenders and their rights activists are either in jail or under surveillance.
At the end , we declare to the officials and officials of the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran
That the return of sovereignty to the legal principles Human and material fulfillment of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is an undeniable right.
We declare from this podium, No one can be subjected to torture or to punishment or conduct Which is cruel or contrary to humanity and humanity.
