The burnt corpse of a female demonstrator found after a month in captivity
















The burnt corpse of a female demonstrator found after a month in captivity

The burnt corpse of Taraneh Mousavi, a 28-year-old woman who was arrested during a demonstration a month ago, was found yesterday between Karaj and Qazvin, west of Tehran.

The regime’s henchmen have threatened Taraneh’s family not to hold a funeral ceremony for her and not to tell anyone the way she was killed.

Taraneh was arrested by the suppressive forces in Tehran’s Shariati Street and was immediately taken to one of the secret torture center known as “Safe houses.” Two weeks after her arrest, an unidentified person called her mother and told her that Taraneh’s corpse was in a hospital in Karaj but the hospital authorities denied it. Only one employee at the hospital said that the plainclothes agents brought in a woman with similar description to those of Taraneh while she was unconscious and she was taken away from there in the same state.

  1. She is now truly free. No one can hurt her anymore. Though she suffered during her last days on this earth, she is free of pain for ever. Her life had a purpose and that was to get back her individual rights that had been taken away. I hope her parents take solace in the fact that the loss of their beautiful daughter will not be in vain. I hope they take up her cause. I hope this unbearable loss make them more resolved in seeking justice by putting an end to this criminal regime.
