The United Nations rights chief said Tuesday he was “horrified” by the mounting violence directed at protesters across Iran, amid reports that hundreds have been killed.
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Turk urged Tehran to halt all forms of violence and repression against peaceful protesters, and to restore full access to the internet and phone services.
The killing of peaceful demonstrators must stop, and the labelling of protesters as ‘terrorists’ to justify violence against them is unacceptable,” Turk said in a statement. (AFP)
