6 years since the catastrophic serial acid attacks, have been passed, and no criminal has been recognized, and there was no punishment for anyone, and only detained criminal was Aria Jafari, photographer of ISNA news agency, who is arrested for taking picture from the protest against the acid attack! but the main criminals were and are secure, and undoubtfully they have been rewarded for this action, because the process of silencing and suppressing the movement of women in any chance or with any reason, is a procedure which has started and continued since the appearance and establishment of the Islamic Republic and Guardianship of the Islamic Jurist, such as forced hijab, which is one of the biggest reasons (excuses) for this inhuman action.
Once again, coincide with the anniversary of that bitter and tragic disaster, that took place in the order of Imam of Friday Prayer, Yousef Tabatabaei Nejhad, Isfahan`s Imam of Friday Prayer, during a meeting with the military and security forces, vividly had requested to make the society “ insecure” for women without concerning for its consequences, and other imams of Friday praying, in his following, issued similar orders. Like: Abolghasem Yaghoubi, Bojnourd`s Imam of Friday Prayer, who has demanded from the law enforcements to insecure the life of the women whom not following the hijab orders. Speaker of the judicature, in order to confronting the “women whom not following the hijab orders” is warning the governmental organizations, police will seize the cars which based on the words of the Mr. deputy “intentionally not following the hijab orders”, the Guidance patrol forces are establishing in the metro stations and alongside with them, there are a group which called “Enjoin the good” whom are starting with the warning and eventually they escort the arrested women and girls to the “Van”, in order to execute the order of making the society insecure for women in its best way.
Now: in spite of the fact that security agents and Islamic Revolution Guards Corps are suppressing the tiniest protests, identifying the protesters and surrendering them to death courts, but after these many years, they are unable to identify and surrender the responsible ones for this horrifying disaster, because always the crimes of governmental officials of Iran are hidden and their denying obvious, in the year 1393, they have denied like always, hide it and claimed that responsible ones for acid attacks are related to “foreign security services and to the Jews”. In order to prevent the previous bitter disaster and according to the 6 and 7 rows of 2nd article of Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, 5th goal of UNESCO`s 2030 Agenda, our colleagues are requiring from all the liberals and human rights organization to harmonize, in order to prevent the suppression of women, and all the human rights violations of Islamic Republic of Iran, Because any human has born free and must live securely.
