When we defend them, we uphold the humanity in us all.” Explanation: This quote emphasizes that human rights are not just abstract concepts; they are the essential rights and freedoms that every individual deserves.

‘Jamshid Sharmahd's execution was a murder with a message. For far too long, Germany and the United States of America have stood idly by or made only half-hearted attempts to free their innocent citizen from the grip of the terrorist regime in Iran. His death must not remain without consequences. The German Foreign Minister must now explain herself or resign,’ said Matthias Boehning , Secretary General of the ISHR.

#Iran The execution of Jamshid Sharmahd is despicable and inexcusable. This continues to show the World how the Iranian regime is dead set on decapitating any voices of dissent. After his arrest, Jamshid, endured a torturous sham of a trial that resulted into his illegitimate and unjustifiable death sentence. His death should not be in Vain. The Iranian regime should be brought book for this and many atrocities it has done against the people.
