Important: Click here to read this clarification about some of our previous statements regarding 'Moharabeh'.
Five more prisoners have been added to death row in Iran, bringing the approximate total of Sunni prisoners facing execution to 25. Full details of the new prisoners and some of the existing prisoners are still unknown, however we have included the new information we have received below.
They are facing charges such as "enmity against God" and "acting against national security". Many 'confessed' after being brutally tortured.
These are innocent men!
Please sign the petition. Your signature could make the difference between life and death for these brothers.
(For more information about the persecution sunnis face in Iran, and for petitions of the 17 other prisoners facing execution, please see our post: supportmybrothers.weebly.com/1/post/2013/08/urgent-action-17-sunnis-to-be-executed.html )

Sign the Petitions
Why are there separate petitions?
We understand it would be more convenient for us to only have to sign one petition. However, there are many reasons for having a separate petition for each prisoner, and we urge you to sacrifice a few extra minutes of your time to help save your brothers' lives.
The reasons for having separate petitions are very sad:
Please take a few minutes to sign each petition. The process is fairly quick and easy (once you have filled out one petition your details are automatically filled in on the rest of the petitions, all you have to do is click each link and enter the security code). This is the least we can do to try and save the lives of these innocent men.

The reasons for having separate petitions are very sad:
- Each prisoner is facing execution individually, and could be executed at any moment. If a prisoner is killed, the petition will contain 'outdated' information and could be disregarded by the relevant authorities.
- Unfortunately, more prisoners are likely to be added to death row, meaning that new petitions will have to be made anyway.
- The sentences the prisoners face are liable to change, and once again could lead to the petition having 'outdated' information.
