Abolfazl Qadiani (Ghadiani), an outspoken opponent of Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has condemned the murder of Armita Geravand.
He stated that the murder of the teenage girl adds another dark chapter to the already troubling record of Khamenei.
Qadiani asserted, "The murder was committed by the hijab enforcers of Khamenei, the power-hungry ruler of Iran. Armita has now joined Mahsa Amini."
Armita, 16, fell into a coma following an encounter with hijab enforcers in the Tehran subway. Despite the government's efforts to obscure the details, it appears that she was pushed by a female agent, resulting in a severe head injury.
Security measures were imposed to prevent the dissemination of information, photographs, or CCTV footage from the scene at Tehran's Fajr Hospital. Tragically, Armita was declared brain dead and subsequently died in the hospital on Saturday.
Qadiani, a 78-year-old former Islamic-leftist revolutionary and former comrade-in-arms of Khamenei, has become an unyielding opponent of the regime. He highlighted the regime's desperate attempts to fabricate a false narrative, attempting to portray Armita's coma in the subway car as a normal and natural occurrence.
He stressed that such murders and crimes cannot save Khamenei and his regime from their impending downfall and held all those involved in the murder, from the hijab enforcers to their leaders and commanders, accountable. However, he blamed the main culprit as Ali Khamenei, saying he must be “held accountable for all the killings, injustices, and suppressions, given that his illegitimate, unlawful, and invasive regime continues to persist.”
