Human rights breaches in Iran

On Thursday, the European Parliament adopted three resolutions on human rights issues in Hong Kong, Iran and Cambodia.

The resolution information was published on the European Parliament's official website.

Members of the European Parliament condemn the arbitrary detention of women in Iran, including Ahoo Daryaei, who removed her clothing and sat partially undressed as part of her protest in the courtyard of Tehran University on November 2, 2024. She was labelled “mentally unfit” and subjected to psychiatric confinement, a practice MEPs say amounts to torture. The resolution urges Iranian authorities to repeal discriminatory legislation against women and girls and to dismantle the "morality police" and other repressive institutions.

They also demand the immediate and unconditional release of all women's rights defenders and other victims of arbitrary detention, including EU citizens, and condemn the persecution of ethnic and religious minorities in Iran, like Bhá’ís women.

Reiterating its call on the Council to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organisation, Parliament also calls on the Iranian government to give unrestricted access to the UN Fact-Finding Mission and the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Iran.

The resolution was adopted by 562 votes for, 2 against, and 30 abstentions.
