‘Silence is not the answer’: Iranian-Canadians horrified by first-known execution

“The helplessness that’s the worst part,” Bahejekian told Global News. “I’m here 15,000 kilometres away trying to advocate for a cousin.”

He is worried Babaei and others will meet the same fate as Shekari if there is not enough international pressure on Iran. According to the Centre for Human Rights in the country, 11 other protestors have been sentenced to death and 28 others, including children, are facing charges that are punishable by death.

“They do it because they can and they can get away with it,” Bahejekian added. “They never paid a price for it. The world should show that there is a price to be paid for this.”
