from Roqe · host Roqe Global Media

“The Massacre of ’88 on Trial” - Part 27 of the Roqe Media series, The Contemporary History of Iran. In 1988, in the aftermath of the Iran-Iraq War, there was a wholesale killing of thousands of political prisoners by the Khomeini regime. What was the massacre of 1988 about? Who was involved? And how is the trial of Hamid Noori, currently taking place in Stockholm, related? Human rights lawyer and International Arbitrator at the International Court of Arbitration, Dr. Kaveh Moussavi, joins Jian Ghomeshi from Oxford, England, to relay information that has emerged about the atrocities of 1988, and how the outcome of the trial of Hamid Noori, one of the executioners, could have major implications for the Iranian government.
