1988 executions of Iranian prisoners : ウィキペディア英語版 | 1988 executions of Iranian political prisoners
The 1988 executions of political prisoners in Iran ((ペルシア語:۱۳۶۷ اعدام زندانیان سیاسی در تابستان)) refers to the state-sponsored execution of political prisoners across Iran, starting on 19 July 1988 and enduring for approximately five months. The majority of those killed were supporters of the People's Mujahedin of Iran, although supporters of other leftist factions, including the Fedaian and the Tudeh Party of Iran (Communist Party), were executed as well.〔(Iranian party demands end to repression )〕〔Abrahamian, Ervand, ''Tortured Confessions'', University of California Press, 1999, 209-228〕 The killings have been described as a political purge without precedent in modern Iranian history, both in terms of scope and coverup. However, the exact number of prisoners executed remains a point of contention. Amnesty International recorded the names of over 4,482 disappeared prisoners during this time,〔http://www.amnesty.org/en/library/asset/MDE13/021/1990/en/5c32759d-ee5e-11dd-9381-bdd29f83d3a8/mde130211990en.html〕 but Iranian opposition groups suggest that the number of prisoners executed was far higher, and as many as 30,000 dissidents may have been executed.〔(Memories of a slaughter in Iran )〕〔(Khomeini fatwa 'led to killing of 30,000 in Iran' )〕 Great care was taken to keep the killings undercover, and the government of Iran currently denies their having taken place. Justifications offered for the alleged executions vary, but one of the most common theories advanced is that they were in retaliation for the 1988 attack on the western borders of Iran by the PMOI Mujahedin. However, this does not fully account for the targeting of other leftist groups who opposed the Mujahedin invasion.〔Abrahamian, ''Tortured Confessions'', (1999), 218〕 ==The executions==
