Persecution of Bahá’ís in Iran – 2022

Published on by TVBahaiLeave a comment

Recent weeks have seen an escalation in the unfair treatment of members of the Bahá’í community in Iran.

Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence issued an appalling statement of oppressive hate propaganda against the persecuted Bahá’í religious minority yesterday in an attempt to justify the raids on the homes and businesses of 52 Bahá’ís across Iran and the arrest or imprisonment of 13 individuals.

In a cruel escalation up to 200 Iranian government and local agents have sealed off the village of Roushankouh, in Mazandaran province, where a large number of Baháʼís live, and are using heavy earthmoving equipment to demolish their homes.

Six homes were destroyed and over 20 hectares of land belonging to Bahá’ís in the village were confiscated.

An insight into Iranian Taboo . . . .

Reza Allamehzadeh, an Iranian-Dutch filmmaker banned from entering his homeland, enlisted the aid of friends who clandestinely filmed inside Iran – the result is the film Iranian Taboo.

The film includes never seen before interviews with some of the most respected Iranian scholars, authors and politicians, speaking about the persecution of Baha’is in Iran.

The resulting documentary by Reza Allamehzadeh exposes the Islamic regime’s attacks against the followers of the Baha’i faith in Iran.

News is expected any time about when the film will be available on DVD – Thames Valley Baha’i Community has asked to be kept informed and we’ll let you know as soon as we know!
