Deep inside the Iranian regime’s dungeons, the flame of freedom continues to burn bright. Parisa Kamali Ardakani, a political prisoner currently serving an eight-and-a-half-year sentence, has released a powerful, smuggled audio message from behind the bars of Yazd Central Prison. She was arrested on April 29, 2024, in Isfahan and initially held in Dowlatabad Prison before facing three separate cases brought against her in Isfahan and Ardakan.
In 2025, Kamali was transferred to internal exile at Yazd Prison. Her charges include insulting Ali Khamenei, engaging in propaganda activities against the system, and membership in the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI). In her message, she exposes the brutal reality of the prisons, stating: “Cardboard rulers rule here… Screams are answered with bullets and the hangman’s noose.”

As Kamali points out, the regime’s use of the death penalty is a desperate authoritarian response to the public’s demands for justice. The mullahs are currently exploiting wartime conditions to carry out a relentless wave of executions, attempting to block the path of future popular uprisings. Since the start of the war, the regime has been executing political prisoners one after another. This includes eight members of the PMOI’s Resistance Units and more than 20 young people who took part in uprisings or fought against the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC).
The regime is desperately trying to hide its weak position and profound fear of collapse behind the noise of war. Today, political prisoners face the very real threat of mass killings, with several PMOI supporters currently under sentences of death.
The regime uses mass executions to strike fear into the hearts of a society that is ready to rise up. However, they have no answer for the growing momentum of the Iranian Resistance. Addressing her captors directly, Kamali declares that the regime has gravely miscalculated: “You execute in the hope of our end. You are gravely mistaken… We are grains of wheat. One by one, we become a thousand.”
Reaffirming an unbreakable bond with those who have sacrificed their lives for freedom, Kamali demands the cancellation of the death sentences for her brothers and sisters on death row. Her voice from inside the dungeons highlights the immediate need for urgent international action to save the lives of political prisoners facing execution, and proves that the regime cannot destroy the 60-year resistance of the Iranian people.
Full text of Parisa Kamali’s message from Yazd Central prison
Salutations to the martyrs of the path of freedom and their families. Cardboard rulers rule here. This is a place where one is left astounded by witnessing boundless crimes. Screams are answered with bullets and the hangman’s noose.
The terrorist mullahs commit crimes. Not a day goes by without them executing and taking lives.
Kaveh [mythological Iranian hero of rebellion], where are you to see someone more bloodthirsty than Zahak [mythological tyrant], to see our children, sisters, and brothers being hanged every day. My compatriots are victims of stained hands that decree executions with their pens. For years, the mullahs’ regime, alongside the systematic savagery of the IRGC, has committed crimes beyond imagination. Damn you bloodsuckers, whose survival requires only blood. May the hands that pen the taking of breath be severed.
No to execution! Because it is a tool to create terror and suppression.
No to execution! Because it is essential for the survival of the mullahs’ rule and is the killer of humanity. You execute in the hope of our end.
You are gravely mistaken; we are countless, we are countless. We are Vahid Amerian, Mohammad Taghavi, Babak Alipour, Pouya Ghobadi, Abolhassan Montazer, Shahrokh Daneshvarkar, Mohammad Amin Biglari, Amirhossein Hatami, Ali Fahim, Shahin Vahedparast, Sasan Azadvar, Abbas Akbari, and all those you wanted to silence through execution. We are grains of wheat. One by one, we become a thousand.
On behalf of the families of Manouchehr Fallah, Peyman Farah Avar, Zahra Tabari, Karim Khojasteh, Alireza Mardasi, Farshad Etemadifar, Reza Abdali, Massoud Jamei, and Mohammad Javad Vafaei Sani, I demand the cancellation of the death sentences of my sisters and brothers. Those who consider themselves immune, know that one day the bloody hands of the criminal mullahs will weave the hangman’s noose for them and their loved ones and place it around their necks. Hoping for the day when there is no trace of execution in my homeland, Iran, and nowhere else in the world.
