The families of political prisoners massacred in summer 1988 commemorated their loved ones on the last Friday of the year, March 17, 2017, according to an Iranian tradition.
Ms. Mansoureh Behkish who has lost five of her siblings and an in-law in the course of this massacre, wrote about the ceremony:
“We arrived at Khavaran (cemetery) at 12.30. Security forces did not let the families to lay flowers on the soil, water and clean the place. So, we put some flowers in the barbed wires in the memory of our loved ones and the mothers who are no longer among us.”
