HRANA News Agency – One of the fellow inmates of the six prisoners who were executed on Wednesday, March 4th, wrote a memoir about the last hours before execution of these prisoners as well as their charges and imprisonment situations for public enlightenment. He wrote “I would like to write a few sentences for my countrymen who may unjustly criticize us without proper reasoning. Hamed Ahmadi was not a member of Al-Qaeda. I am not a member of Al-Qaeda. We have emphasized many times and will do more: we are not providing moral and material support to al-Qaeda or other similar organizations. We are not an armed group. We did not commit any crime. If we were member of Al-Quada, we could have been easily exchanged with the members of the Revolutionary Guard and Basij. We are Shafei. Our only crime is our faith and religion, which are completely legal and peaceful. We, Sunnis, have paid high cost for peacefully defending our belief. Hamed Ahmadi also sacrificed his life in the same way.”

Forgiveness is a response to the confession by which, we abandon our resentment and anger for not being consumed by them. Forgiveness means a choice that we love people in contrast with what they have done to us. Forgiveness is not redeeming the relationships, but empowering us to live in peace and love people when they hate”.

Hussein entered the courthouse but later we were told (at 3 PM) that he was arrested because he was a fugitive. I ask Mr. Khodabakhshi “how could my son be a fugitive? He had a letter from the medical commission of Shahrak-Gharb, requesting to be exempted from spending time in jail because of his health issues. Moreover, the judge and the attorney general both authorized his release because of these medical issues. If he was a fugitive, how could I turn him to you on Tuesday (only three days after the request we received on Saturday). Ever since his arrest on Tuesday at 3:00 PM, he has been kept under quarantine in the worst possible conditions.
