Hajar Rostami, mother of Iranian post-election victim Neda Agha-Soltan, appealed to international human rights organizations and tribunals to identify the murderer of her daughter.
The International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran website reports that the mother of the young woman who was shot to death in Tehran during last summer’s street protests against election fraud has announced that her efforts in identifying the murderer of her daughter have failed.
Hajar Rostami exclaims: “I have nothing to tell the government. I have kept silent all this while; now, I just want the world to hear my appeal and find Neda’s murderer.”
She adds that Iranian authorities have treated her with respect; however she also says that “there has been an extensive effort to distort the truth about her daughter’s death.”
She listed the films aired on Islamic Republic television, statements made by authorities and leading clerics and Ezatollah Zarghami, head of Iran’s national broadcasting, Seda va Sima as clear instances of their efforts in distortion of her daughter’s life and death.
Hajar Rostami says: So far they have made three films. Each time they have contradicted their last statements. But I am Neda’s mother and I know, she had gone out to join the street protests and was killed by their forces.”
She adds that these programs are only “to say that we have a free country…but no one believes these lies; not the people of Iran, or the people of the world.”
On the other hand, French first lady Carla Bruni was branded as a "prostitute" and "immoral" by Iranian news outlets on Monday after she expressed support for an Iranian woman sentenced to death by stoning.
As you all remember Iran’s regime and its media used to call Neda a prostitute also. They always label people which they’re not on their side same as what happen in North Korea. The Paradox is whomever that labeled by Iran’s government aggressively; people react and like them more.
