IRAN: Execution of 5 prisoners in Gohardasht Prison

The anti-human clerical regime ruling Iran has sent five more prisoners to the gallows again. Among the five is Alireza Shahi whose death sentence was condemned by Amnesty International. The execution took place in Gohardasht Prison in the city of Karaj last Tuesday. 
Five men were part of a group of at least ten prisoners that their execution had been scheduled for 24 November.
The five victims, Said Najafi, Farshad Haqi, Mohammad Baygi, Mohammad Polombeh and Alireza Shahi had been transferred to isolation on Saturday.
There has been no public announcement of these executions by prison officials.
Amnesty International said on Monday that Alireza Shahi did not have a fair trial and “after his arrest he was placed in detention for two weeks where he says he was tortured and otherwise ill-treated to confess. He was also denied access to both a lawyer and his family.”
“It is always cruel and inhumane to take away an individual’s life by hanging but the cruelty is compounded when the execution follows an unfair trial which has relied on coerced confessions, and ignored allegations of torture and other ill-treatment,” said Said Boumedouha, Deputy Director of Amnesty International’s Middle East and North Africa Program.
“The rate of executions in Iran is deplorable which, if they continue at the current rate, could reach more than 1,000 this year. In case after case we hear allegations of torture, fundamentally flawed trials, all in breach of international law and standards,” Amnesty International said.

URGENT ACTION: JUVENILE OFFENDER FACES THE GALLOWS AGAIN

Juvenile offender Salar Shadizadi has been rescheduled for execution on Saturday 28 November, despite the prohibition on the use of the death penalty against juvenile offenders under international law and standards, and his right to be granted a re-trial under Iran’s own domestic law.

Salar Shadizadi, now aged 24, was sentenced to death by Branch 11 of the Provincial Criminal Court of Gilan Province in December 2007 for stabbing his childhood friend. He was 15 years old at the time. The sentence was upheld by Branch 37 of the Supreme Court in March 20 08 and approved by the Head of the Judiciary in May 2013. Since then, the authorities have twice scheduled the execution and later postponed it. They have, however, failed to take the steps necessary to ensure that Salar Shadizadi is granted a re-trial, even though the General Board of Iran’s Supreme Court has ruled that all those on death row for crimes committed when they were under 18 are entitled to receive a re-trial based on the new juvenile sentencing provisions of Iran’s 2013 Islamic Penal Code.
Salar Shadizadi was arrested in February 2007 and charged with the murder of a friend when he was 15 years old. He was not granted access to a lawyer at the investigative stage and was only allowed to retain a lawyer when his case was sent to court for trial. He says that he was also tortured and otherwise ill-treated during the investigative stage. In a will letter written from prison in November 2015, Salar Shadizadi has revealed, for the first time, how he unintentionally caused the “catastrophic” death of his childhood friend by unintentionally stabbing a frightening moving object, covered in green cloth, in the dark, which he then realized to be his deceased friend. He writes that this happened in the context of a “silly game” where his friend had dared him to go to their family garden at night, knowing that Salar Shadizadi was afraid of the dark and had been warned by his grandmother since childhood that the garden is haunted by “evil spirits” (jen). The execution of Salar Shadizadi was scheduled on 1 August 2015 but was postponed at the last minute, possibly as a result of international pressure.

Iran: Zanjani’s wives! visiting him in Evin prison prevented women political prisoners in to see their children

Iranian regime authorities in the notorious Evin Prison in Tehran have prevented children from visiting their mothers who are held there as political prisoners. The reason given by the Khamenei point man in this nefarious prison is that Babak Zanjani, a corrupt middleman working with the Iranian Revolutionary Guards to circumvent sanctions, has visitors. And who might these visitors be? His 3 wives!

Human rights activists on Wednesday Nov. 25th reported that Zanjani was expecting to meet with his 3 wives in the visiting hall of the Evin Prison, asked not to be disturbed by other visitors coming to visit their loved ones. So the children, who already were granted visit with their political prisoner mothers, were told the visits were canceled. And the children were forced to leave the area while crying and asking for their mothers. Reports continue to say that mothers who were counting days and hours to see their children were told the visits were off and were hauled back to their cells.
After a short while these courageous and brave women protested and condemned the clerical regime for denying their basic and minimum rights of visiting their loved ones.
It should be noted that in the misogynist and perverted mullahs’ interpretation of Islam, bigamy is allowed and practiced routinely and a man can have up to 4 legal and official wives and dozens more still legally but unofficially. 

Children trafficking in Iran, sold for under $60

Another painful product of colossal corruption among Iranian regime’s elite is children’s trafficking and abuse for money. A child is bought and sold for under 60 dollars outside hospitals in south of Tehran, a city official has said.
“New born babies are being sold between 100,000 to 200,000 Tomans (27 to 54 U.S. Dollars) in areas near hospitals in south of Tehran,” Fatemeh Daneshvar, the head of Social Committee of Tehran’s City Council has said, according to a report published by state-run news agency IRNA on Saturday.
The children belong to the families of poor and women who leave in streets of the capital city.
Despite official acknowledgment by city officials, the head of police in Greater Tehran Area denies his office receiving any report on the sale of children in the streets of the capital city.
Recently a senior official of the regime acknowledged that at least 20,000 homeless Iranians are living in cardboard boxes on the streets of Tehran, even as the real number of homeless people in the Iranian capital is believed to be several times the official figure.
Iran holds one tenth of the world’s proven oil reserves and has the second largest global natural gas reserves.
The vast proportion of Iran’s revenue are being spent on export of terrorism and fundamentalism to the region and on the regime’s nuclear weapons projects.
As economists have reported, from 2005 to 2008, Iran’s oil export revenue amounted to $244 billion, equalling the 13 preceding years from 1992 to 2004. That’s close to $500 billion in just 17 years.

US warns its citizens of travelling outside the country

The U.S. State Department has issued a warning to its citizens not to travel outside the country over possible risks of terrorism attacks

The U.S. State Department has issued a warning to its citizens not to travel outside the country over possible risks of terrorism attacks.

The travel alert, which is to be in effect until Feb. 24, comes amid information that terrorist groups continue to plan attacks in multiple regions by employing a “wide variety of tactics,” according to the State Department.
Authorities believe the likelihood of terror attacks will continue as members of ISIS return from Iraq and Syria, as well as the threat from “unaffiliated persons” planning attacks inspired by major terrorist organizations.
'U.S. citizens should exercise vigilance when in public places or using transportation,' said the alert released Monday. 'Be aware of immediate surroundings and avoid large crowds or crowded places. Exercise particular caution during the holiday season and at holiday festivals or events,' it said.
The travel alert was issued by the State Department on the same day that Belgium’s prime minister announced that Brussels would remain at the highest alert level for at least another week.
The increased security measures following the Nov. 13 attacks in Paris that killed 130 people have virtually shut down the Belgian capital.

Suppressive iranian agents again target gathering of families of political prisoners arrest more people

Secretariat of the National Council of Resistance of Iran
 On Monday, November 23, agents of regime’s Ministry of Intelligence (MOIS) brutally attacked families of martyrs and political prisoners in Tehran’s Vanak Square arresting some and taking them to undisclosed location. This measure taken to prevent their protest gathering was the second such attack by suppressive forces this week against these families. Just two days ago, the suppressive forces had attacked an assembly of families of martyrs and political prisoner in front ofEvin Prison arresting dozens and transferring them to Evin or Qerchak Prison in Varamin.

Ms. Seamin Ayvaz-zadeh, 56, mother of political prisoner Omid Ali Shenas, who was arrested on November 21 and transferred with a number of other women to Qerchak Prison in Varamin is currently on hunger strike. She suffers of high blood pressure and arrhythmia.
Her son Mr. Omid Ali Shenas, a political prisoner in Ward 8 of Evin that has staged a hunger strike in protest to the MOIS agents attack on the families of prisoners and the arrest of his mother, was battered by head henchman Khazaii, a guard officer in Evin. This prisoner that has been detained for 14 months has been kept in limbo and his trial date has still not been announced.
The Iranian regime has found brutal suppression as the only tool to confront the wave of popular protests and public abhorrence.
The Iranian Resistance calls on the Iranian people, especially the valiant youth, to support and show solidarity with the families of political prisoners, especially those arrested in the recent days, and urges all international human rights agencies to take immediate and effective action to secure the release of all arrestees of the recent days.

Iran is ranked in the bottom 10 in gender equality around the world

Economists warn that women are not likely to reach economic equality with men until the year 2133

  It will take another 118 years to close the global gender gap, research conducted by the World Economic Forum has revealed.

The annual Global Gender Gap report tracks changes in equality between men and women by analyzing female participation in four key categories: the economy, education, health and politics.
Economists have ranked 145 countries, with Iceland holding on to the top position for the seventh consecutive year. Other Nordic countries – Finland, Sweden and Norway – fill out the top four.
Rwanda ranks sixth and is the highest-rated developing country in the world, achieving a greater level of equality than the UK, the US or Germany. Women are almost equal members of the economy and the labor force, and hold the majority of seats in parliament – the highest proportion in the world.
The UK is ranked 18th, coming in below South Africa, Namibia and Nicaragua. It scores very highly in health and education, but a lack of women in parliament means it scores poorly for political empowerment.
North African and Middle Eastern countries feature heavily at the bottom of the rankings. Iran is ranked in the bottom 10 among 145 countries along with Syria and Yemen.
The current inequalities 'risk being exacerbated' in the future due to technological advancements that eradicate jobs traditionally held by women, Klaus Schwab, Founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum told the Daily Telegraph.
'In that context, we need to create a world where women’s contributions and ideals are as valued as those of men,' he urged. 'Gender parity in our thinking and actions will be critical in helping to ensure that the future is served by humanity and not threatened by i

By supporting NCRI and fighting Islamic Extremism, we will ensure a lasting, effective defense against terror: Sir David Amess

Sir David Amess 

The Huffington Post-19/11/2015-I remember almost a year ago, the enormous crowds that came together all across France, to rally against extremism. This rally showed everything that was great about French society. The rally did not blame all Muslims for the deeds of a few radicals misleadingly carried out in the name of Islam and it was not the familiar angry call for bloodshed and revenge that all too often follows these tragic events. However, these latest attack shows that when it comes to Islamic extremism, it’s not just enough to speak softly and rationally, we must put the stick about.
Let us be clear about what should not occur in the reaction to this latest round of bloodshed perpetrated my Islamic extremists. France’s Muslim population, Europe’s Muslim populations and especially refugees should not receive blame for the actions of a few. Yes, eight attackers are guilty. Yes, this attack like so many others was carried out under the name of Islam and that this is happening far too often. Yet we should not forget that the vast majority of Muslims would never support such violence, that during the last attack Muslims died and risked their lives fighting against these extremists and that refugees are escaping these extremists.
France and indeed the western world need to attack Islamic extremism at its source. This means relentlessly going after Daesh. However, it further means fighting against the theocratic regime in Tehran and its allies whose policies give life to those groups. Iranian backed militias committed massacres in Iraq and the Iranian government pushed the Iraqi government towards sectarianism. Similarly in Syria, the Iranian regime sponsored Assad’s brutal crackdowns, chemical warfare and torture against innocent people on an unfathomable scale. While these actions may not have created Daesh, they at least added tremendously to their strength and serve as its main recruitment agent, as the Prime Minister David Cameron and Secretary Kerry have pointed out repeatedly.
Tactics used by Daesh, both in France and elsewhere were also largely adopted from the post-revolution Iranian regime. One of the first and largest hostage taking situations was carried out by the regime in Tehran. Suicide operations and tactics of bombing targets abroad were additionally adopted which enabled a state apparatus that could provide funding, organization, equipment and diplomatic cover that regular terror groups could only dream of. Daesh is just the radical Sunni version of what was and is a radical Shiite invention of Iran’s Ayatollahs.
We have let the Iranian regime continue along its radical path and we keep paying a hefty price, from regional chaos to bombings abroad and beyond. We cannot continue to keep paying such a high price in human sacrifice for permitting Iranian extremism and we cannot allow Daesh to follow in its footsteps. If it were not for Tehran supporting Assad in Syria, he would have been gone several years ago and Daesh would never have multiplied. The bottom line is, Assad must go and in order to do so, we have to contain Iran.
Let us empower the moderate Muslim majority. Although it seems like a pipe dream given the sensationalist news coverage, the reality is there are many groups organised and on the ground that have a good track record against the scourge of extremism.
In Syria and Iraq, Kurdish groups and other moderate rebels are pushing Daesh back and fighting against the Assad regime at the same time.
In Iran too, there is an organised opposition, which has the support of an Iranian population sympathetic towards the West. This opposition is the National Council of Resistance of Iran ( NCRI ), which has large-scale support among Iranians inside the country and abroad. In what is unique for today’s Middle East, this organised opposition to the theocratic regime in Iran is led by a Muslim woman, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi .
In April 2006, she presented the NCRI’s 10-point platform for a future Iran that commits to the abolition of the death penalty, ending the use of torture in a future Iran and calls for a democratic, non-nuclear Iran with a clear separation between religion and state, gender equality and elimination of all religious and ethnic discrimination. The regime sees such a threat as a way to undertake an unprecedented spree of imprisonment, torture and murder.
By supporting these groups and fighting Islamic Extremism whatever its form, we will ensure a lasting, effective defence against the types of terror faced in Paris recently. Without resolve to fight and empower our allies, Islamic Extremism will just continue to threaten our free and open societies with barbaric atrocities

Iranian Resistance hold memorial at the Bataclan for Paris Attacks victims

Members of the National Council of Resistance of Iran ( NCRI ) on Wednesday gathered opposite the Bataclan concert call in Paris to remember the 129 people who were killed in a terrorist attack by Islamic fundamentalist terrorists in the French capital last week.
Senior officials of the Iranian Resistance, including Ms. Sarvnaz Chitsaz, chair of the NCRI’s Women’s Committee, Mr. Mehdi Abrishamchi, chair of the NCRI’s Peace Committee, and Ms. Dowlat Nowrouzi, the NCRI’s representative in the United Kingdom, laid flowers at the site in memory of the victims of the brutal attack.
The statement issued by NCRI President-elect Mrs. Maryam Rajavi on November 13 immediately after the massacre was read out at the ceremony.

Mrs. Rajavi reiterated that fundamentalism in the name of Islam - whether under the banner of Shia and velayat-e faqih or under the banner of Sunni and Daesh – and their inhuman crimes have nothing to do with Islam, and this evil phenomenon, wherever it may be, is the enemy of peace and humanity.
Renowned Iranian musician Hamidreza Taherzadeh, a member of the NCRI, performed a violin solo in remembrance of the victims of the tragedy.

Prominent French singer and writer Sapho joined the supporters of the NCRI by giving a live performance at the memorial. Also present was French writer Olivier Steiner who welcomed the international unity among peoples against the threat of Islamic fundamentalism.

Parisians express support and solidarity with Iranian Resistance

The Iranian Resistance’s call for international solidarity against Islamic fundamentalism has been met with strong approval by the French public.
Immediately after the November 13 deadly terrorist attacks in Paris claimed by the Islamic fundamentalist group ISIS (ISIL or Islamic State), Iranian opposition leader Mrs. Maryam Rajavi issued a statement condemning the atrocity and stating that the terrorists responsible for the massacre in no way represented true Islam.
At least 129 people were killed in the Paris attacks.
Mrs. Rajavi reiterated that fundamentalism in the name of Islam - whether under the banner of Shia and velayat-e faqih or under the banner of Sunni and Daesh – and their inhuman crimes have nothing to do with Islam, and this evil phenomenon, wherever it may be, is the enemy of peace and humanity.
Over the past week, supporters of the National Council of Resistance of Iran ( NCRI) have held memorials and vigils in central Paris in memory of the victims of the massacre. They have also informed the French public of Mrs. Rajavi’s position which has been widely endorsed among the French people.

Gum and Roses: Syrian refugee children in sales, not schools

Rula has not had a three-month holiday from school, because she has not attended school for the last three years. With her broken shoes and dirty clothes, she begs for money on the streets of Beirut. Occasionally, she sells chewing gum or roses. She is one of hundreds of Syrian kids walking the streets of Lebanon’s capital.
Late at night, these children can be seen in Hamra and Mar Mikhael Street, nightlife spots where bars have popped up since 2012. Not yet teenagers, they sometimes stay up until 2 or 3am. They take care of each other, but occasionally fight. Many have barely grown in the last three years, an example of the lack of care and adequate food for their age.
There are more than a million Syrian refugees in Lebanon, half of them under the age of 18. Many more have not registered with the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), or could not do so after an order from the Lebanese government enforced in May.

Public schools

The government and humanitarian agencies have struggled to provide schooling for all child refugees. Last year, just 106,000 Syrian kids - out of more than 200,000 - attended primary education after the Ministry of Education limited the number of places available to revaluate the schooling system.
This year, the goal is to offer primary education to 200,000 Syrian. If the objective is reached, the figure will almost match the number of Lebanese children who attend public primary education - less than 30 percent of local children - an example of the massive burden on Lebanon and aid agencies.

Two Syrian brothers Bashar, 12, and Rasem, 14, who fled their home from Hassakeh, try to sell flowers to make a living in Beirut“The bulk of the money is now available” says UNICEF Lebanon representative Tanya Chapuisat, dismissing lack of funds as a barrier to enrolling Syrian kids in public school. However, in other sectors lack of money is a problem. The aid program for Syrian refugees in the region, known as 3RP - Regional Refugee and Resilience Plan - has collected from its donors only 41 percent of the total expected for the current year.
If the goal is reached, it will be the first time since the crisis that most kids of primary schooling age are enrolled. Chapuisat says the problem is larger than paying tuition fees: “There are issues such as children bringing income to the family, because parents have out-of-date residence permit, so they feel insecure to circulate” in public spaces.
Other issues preventing children going to school are families not having the money to pay for transport, or parents being “afraid of letting their daughter walk back from school in the dark in winter. Most of the kids who don’t attend either formal or informal education spend the days “not doing anything.”

Long-term risk

The consequences on children missing education include lack of self-control, self-esteem or confidence to socialize. In the context of poverty and lack of opportunities in a region plagued by violence and instability, some point to the risk of falling prey to armed groups with financial capacity seeking to increase their ranks.
Kids in areas that are not under Syrian government control have barely attended school due to fighting, destruction of infrastructure, migration of qualified personnel, or lack of organization from the groups in control. Also, government airstrikes have regularly targeted schools, some of which have been used as bases by armed groups.
Recently, reports have emerged of families with economic problems enrolling children in an armed group in the Deir Ezzor countryside. The group is said to pay $400 a month, enough to feed a large family.

Mullahs’ regime’s in Iran attempt to exploit Paris terrorist catastrophe

Following catastrophic terrorist attacks in Paris on Friday, November 13, the antihuman mullahs’ regime, known as the Godfather of international terrorism, has not been able cloak its jubilance over this crime against humanity and is despicably attempting to exploit this tragedy to legitimize the massacre of the Syrian people and the Assad dictatorship remaining in power that are the very main elements behind the emergence and expansion of ISIS.
Abu Talebi, political advisor to the mullahs’ president Hassan Rouhani and the regime’s former ambassador to France, has described the terrorist crimes in Paris as “inevitable”, “the outcome of the West’s arbitrary measures in supporting terrorism … and neglecting Iran’s warnings during the past few years.”
“The French have paid the price of their government’s support for ISIS and terrorism,” said Brigadier General Massoud Jazayeri, deputy commander of the mullahs’ armed forces general staff. Describing the Syrian people’s resistance as terrorism he added, “From the first months of the terrorist measures in Syria and other neighboring countries, we gave numerous warnings to Europe that terrorism will engulf their lands.” This Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) general threatened Europe of more terrorist attacks and said, “If the West continues its support of terrorism… they will have to expect declaring emergency state in other parts of the European continent.” (IRGC-associated Fars news agency – November 14, 2015)
Tasnim, the news agency affiliated to the terrorist Quds Force, described the Paris tragedy as “homemade terrorism” in France and Europe and wrote, “Khamenei had during the past few years warned Western leaders that supporting terrorism in the region will eventually turn back on you… and in the not so distant future, these groups will cause turmoil in the same countries that supported them.” This news agency posted a despicable cartoon entitled “Homemade Terrorism”, depicting an image that the roots of ISIS are in the hands of France and its president.
In an interview with France’s Channel 2 TV, Mullah Hassan Rouhani, the regime’s president, had blatantly supported the brutal Syrian dictator Bashar Assad just two days before this terrorist attack. Rouhani also went on to emphasize the idea of actually strengthening Assad.
Quds Online, affiliated to the IRGC, described the Syrian opposition as terrorist and wrote, “The U.S. and European countries support terrorists under the pretext of confronting Syria’s legal president, and they have allowed them to carry out crimes against humanity. The byproduct of such an approach is seen in the Paris terrorist attacks, and currently ISIS is like a dog that has bitten its owner’s leg, and the countries of Italy, United Kingdom and United States are threatened with similar attacks. If Western countries are seeking to prevent being engulfed in such human catastrophes, they must uproot terrorists without meddling in the internal affairs of other countries such as Syria. For this objective it is necessary for the West to leave the fate of Bashar Assad up to the Syrian people and focus their efforts on uprooting terrorism [read resistance forces and the Free Syrian Army].”

Horrific scene of public execution in Iran continue

More women committing suicide in Iran under Rouhani

This is the bitter fact in my innocent country Iran.Farhad Paederithani, head of the Hygiene Administration in the city of Gorgan in northern Iran admitted to the rising number of suicides in this city. 

“From March to September of this year 25 people have committed suicide, of which 16 were women and 9 were men,” he said.
Referring to the many social problems people face under the mullahs’ regime he admitted that drug addiction, divorce and suicides are the main reasons behind social damages that is seriously threatening Iran’s society.
Suicide numbers in Iran under the mullahs’ regime have increased to 11 cases each day due to massive plundering and growing poverty. This means over 4,000 cases of suicides each year. Even regime officials say these numbers are less than the actual status quo. (State-run Tabnak website – April 12th, 2014)
Last year, Salehi Nassab, a member of the regime’s so-called parliament said over 100 people had committed suicide in the town of Dasht-e Azadegan in 2014 alone.

In addition to wast range misery in  Iran , brutal executions  has become a daily task for the rulling Mullahs  in Iran. they just want to horrify our people .

The brutal and inhumane regime of Iran has once again resorted to one of its 

most barbaric and vicious means of intimidation in response to the ever increasing dissent among the public. Hanging in public which ordinary people including children and vulnerable people can watch has been condemned by both Iranians and the civilized world. But yet the clerical regime continues to exercise this inhuman act to prolong its disgusting and horrifying rule.
Just this last Monday a 30-year-old prisoner, only identified by his initials E.S., was hanged in a public square in the city of Khoy, north-west Iran.
The mullahs’ regime also on Tuesday hanged three prisoners in the town of Baft, southern Iran.
The three prisoners were identified only by their initials H.M., A.E. and N.H.

 The mullahs’ regime in Iran continues to execute more of its citizens per capita than any other U.N. member state. Some 2000 people have been executed within past 2 years since Hassan Rouhani has taken the presidential desk.

A statement by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein on August 5 said: 'Iran has reportedly executed more than 600 individuals so far this year. Last year, at least 753 people were executed in the country.'
Amnesty International said on September 7 that “the Iranian authorities must end their unprecedented killing spree – more than 700 people have been executed so far this year.'

Iranians demonstrate in Paris to condemn Rouhani’s trip to France

On November 16, the Iranian regime’s President Hassan Rouhani is scheduled to arrive in France for a two-day visit. A major rally and march has been organized coinciding his visit to Paris. Protestors will seek to draw attention to the dramatic increase in the number of executions since Rouhani took office, as well as the recent rocket attack on Camp Liberty, where thousands of Iranian dissidents reside in Iraq.
Demonstrators will also address the Iranian regime’s export of terrorism and its all-out support of Bashar al-Assad and massacre of the Syrian people.
The rally will be led by Iranian expatriates, who will be joined by French citizens and international supporters of the Iranian resistance. Several renowned human rights organizations have joined in sponsorship of the event.
Cross-party French lawmakers will be among the speakers at the event, as will political and social dignitaries from France and from across Europe.
Elaborate street performances and exhibitions have been planned for the event, to depict examples of Iranian human rights violations.
The human rights situation has been deteriorating rapidly in Iran. More than 2,000 individuals have been executed during Rouhani’s tenure. This is the highest rate of executions in the past 25 years, and it reflects an increase over figures that had already secured Iran’s place as the nation with the most executions per capita.
Camp Liberty, the place of residence in Iraq for more than 2,000 members of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI or MEK), was targeted on October 29 by the Iranian regime. The barrage of 80 rockets killed 24 residents of the camp and wounded dozens of others.
Venue of the rally: Trocadéro, Paris
Date and time: Monday, November 16, 2015, 13:30
