' Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, has agreed to grant amnesty to “tens of thousands” of prisoners, among which are people convicted for their role in the recent protests and riots, state media reported on Sunday.
The move coincided with the 44th anniversary of the Iranian Islamic Revolution, which is celebrated in Iran between February 1 and 11.
Those who participated in the protests and riots could have their sentences reduced or be pardoned altogether, as long as they were not accused of espionage, contacting foreign intelligence agents, did not damage state property, and did not injure or kill anyone during the riots, state news agency IRNA said.
Khamenei reportedly approved a request for the pardons that had been made by Iran’s Judiciary Chief Gholam Hossein Mohseni-Ejei. The supreme leader regularly issues similar verdicts on occasion of various religious festivities.
The exact number of those covered by the amnesty has not been revealed, but IRNA reported “tens of thousands” could be pardoned. It is also unclear how many of those were convicted over participation in the protests'
A little ironic considering the bunk claims from Amnesty International that Iran was going to execute thousands of protesters not too long ago. Remains to be seen how far this Pardon will go though .
Well the police and IRCG themselves and various other aspects of the Iranian deep state (if you will) have been doing the majority of the skull cracking (and other heinous things including in a couple cases some credible allegations of rape) rather then the (as far as I know now demobilized) "morality police" and I don't think they're too afraid. Again yeah they've done some pretty heinous things to be clear as one would expect during protests that at times morph into violent riots . They've killed many (human rights orgs claim hundreds) and have also had dozens of their own killed. How many people who stabbed or shot Iranian police/national guard were paid or otherwise influenced operators ? That's how the coup in 54 started it's an apt question but it's impossible to know.
So to reiterate idk about fear but I am being pedantic and rambling like I tend to do sometimes so I'll just say that yeah my sentiment is with ya man.
