Habib Khabiri, a former player of the national football team who was executed


Houshang Montazerolzohour was a gold medalist of the Iran national Greco Roman wrestling team. Two nights after his last title and winning the gold medal at the national wrestling championship on August 13, 1981, security forces arrested him along with his father. One month later, Montazerolzohour was executed for his membership to the PMOI/MEK.

Authorities applied extreme physical and psychological torture to Abdi. For instance, they detained Abdi’s entire family and held them in custody for around six months, seeking to break her soul and succumb her. However, she denied it and eventually was executed along with 30,000 political prisoners in the summer of 1988.
