The Iranian Government has unleashed unprecedented attack on Kurdish People
in different cities of Kurdistan , by murdering and committing of atrocities, massive
arrests. Now, an unannounced curfew is governing in all parts of the Iranian
Kurdistan.
The event started on 8 July, when the security forces in Mahabad tried to arrest a
certain Shwana Gaderi, a young person in his early twenties. As he escaped by fear
of being tortured, the security forces shot him, causing serious injuries. After
arresting him in such abominable situation, he was died under brutal torture. The
display of his tortured body, with wounds and bloods on all over of it, incited the
public reaction against this crime, by closing out the shops and demonstrating in
front governor’s building, demanding the offenders to be brought to justice.
Instead, the answer of the Islamic Republic of Iran was bullet and blood.
Now, all cities of Iranian Kurdistan from Mahabad to Sardasht, Oshnavieh, Baneh,
Sanandaj, Saqez, Boukan, Paveh and … are under sever repression. The
government has concentrated huge military forces and its Especial Units against
innocent and defenceless people of Kurdistan. Even the wounded persons, because
of heavy control of military and security forces on hospitals, are being treated at
homes. Since the 8 July, over 25 persons have been killed, over 200 persons have
been wounded and hundreds of persons have been arrested as a result of repressive
measures of Islamic Republic of Iran.

Majority of Kurdish people in Kurdistan of Iran has joined the today 07/08/05 General strike.
