Hossein Majidi

As the Public and Revolutionary Prosecutor of Khoy, Hossein Majidi has been responsible for handing down and implementing death sentences in public. He has been involved in the public execution of two prisoners on 26 October 2017 and 14 December 2017, respectively.

As the Public and Revolutionary Prosecutor of Urmia, Hossein Majidi is responsible for implementing death sentences of citizens without due legal process and in breach of human rights regulations. This included the killing of Muhyiddin Ebrahimi, a Kurdish political prisoner.

Muhyiddin Ebrahimi was executed on charges of baghy (armed rebellion) on March 17, 2023. He was, for a long time, tortured so a  confession could be extracted from him about carrying arms and being a member of the Kurdistan Democratic Party. Muhyiddin Ebrahimi repeatedly denied these accusations.

As the Public and Revolutionary Prosecutor of Urmia, Hossein Majidi, refused to fulfil his duty to identify those responsible for the poisoning of schoolgirls and filing a criminal case against them. Through this, he allowed   the students’ right to life and right to be free from torture to be violated.

On 30 November 2022, the news of a poison attack at a girls’ school in Qom was published. Several videos and reports were published afterwards suggesting that the poisoning of students was spreading to schools in other cities of Iran.

Hossein Majidi and other Iranian authorities have failed to identify and hold accountable the perpetrators of the chemical attacks on schools in Urmia and other cities. They continue to make contradictory statements and have blamed the enemies of the Islamic Republic for these incidents.

In fact, many believe that these poisonings were a form of vengeance against the school girls who took part in the protests after the death of Jina Mahsa Amini in September 2022.

The 2022-23 protests began following the death of Mahsa (Jina) Amini on September 13, 2022, in the detention of the morality police of the Islamic Republic. These protests quickly spread across the country and are remembered as the largest revolutionary uprising against the government since the establishment of the Islamic Republic.

The Iranian government responded to these protests with deadly violence. According to human rights organizations, the security forces of the Islamic Republic have killed at least 551 people, with a minimum of 68 of them being children.
