Iran Focus
London, Jul. 14 – Iran Focus has obtained several before-and-after photos of
Shoan Qaderi, a young Iranian Kurd from the north-western town of Mahabad, who was gunned down by State
Security Forces and then hung from the back of a Toyota jeep which was driven in nearby
streets on Sunday.
According to witnesses the act was carried out because Qaderi was active in
anti-government protests and authorities wanted to intimidate the local
population to prevent further demonstrations in the volatile city.
Minutes after Qaderi’s body was dragged throughout the town, several hundred
angry residents gathered in nearby streets and started to chant
anti-government slogans.
