The NCRI Women’s Committee strongly Condemns this Crime Against Humanity, Calls for International Investigation of this Case, and Terrorist Designation of the Clerical Regime’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)
According to documents and reports by the BBC World Service, four agents of Khamenei’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) were involved in the arrest and subsequent sexual assault on the 16-year-old protester, Nika Shakarami. Her inhumane murder occurred during the 2022 Iran uprising, constituting crimes against humanity.
The shocking documents reveal the involvement of members of a secret intelligence unit of the IRGC in the arrest, rape, and murder of Nika Shakarami. Subsequently, the mullahs’ criminal regime claimed that she had committed suicide.
The Women’s Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran strongly condemns this atrocious and inhuman crime. It calls for international investigations into the case, and the expedited terrorist designation of the clerical regime’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
The people of Iran, especially Iranian women, urge the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Iran, the UN Special Rapporteur on Violence against Women, and the Independent International Fact-Finding Mission to urgently address this case. They emphasize the need to refer it to the International Criminal Court to issue arrest warrants for the officials, masterminds, and perpetrators of this crime, ensuring that each of them is brought to justice.
