Iranian crackdown deepens as officials warn of fast-tracked executions for protesters
Iran is facing a harsh post-protest crackdown with tens of thousands detained and a death toll believed to be around 30,000. Families say detainees are held incommunicado, in overcrowded and unsanitary conditions, with limited or no access to lawyers, and some facing fast-tracked charges that could carry the death penalty (including moharebeh). Rights groups warn of human-rights abuses amid calls for international intervention and scrutiny of the judicial process.
