The political prisoners of
Ardabil Prison, in a statement, boycotted the sham Presidential Election that
is going to be held on May 19th, 2017. They have urged all Iranians to make
rational and right decisions on the future of Iran, as well as its problems.
The prisoners also asked the Iranians not to participate in the Election and to
stand against the oppressive regime.
The letter is addressed to the
Iranian people, which states in part, "The philosophy of the election has
always been clear, free, and far from any kind of discrimination, such as
ethnicity, language, religion, and so on, and the election has always been an
opportunity for all people. Indeed, the international observers monitor any
decision on the fate of all nations and the goal of an election is to move
towards progress and perfection with a clear and ideal understanding.
Additionally, the people's rights and desires are always considered and
respected and, ultimately, there will be progress and freedom in every
society."
The political prisoners wrote in
their letter, "Nevertheless, the elections in Iran are confined to a
particular religious and political spectrum, unlike other societies in the
world. In addition, these spectrums transfer the power to each other in each
round of the elections. Meanwhile, due to regime's discriminations, those
groups, circles, ethnic and religious minorities are deprived of participating
in this important national religious event and they take no part in the
administration of their country."
The political prisoners stressed
in their letter that in such events, the authorities have never met people's
demands. Consequently, people have always coped with the considerable pressures
day by day and been isolated as well.
The political prisoners also
stressed that participating in the election makes no sense in such a chaotic
political situation when the people do not have their legitimate rights. In
fact, the intended person has already been elected. Naturally, he has no
obligation, power, sovereign, and will of its own in order to fulfill the
demands of the people. He will never be eligible to carry out the country's
policy in the domestic and foreign spheres. He will only serve to protect the
interests of his gang. Therefore, he would not be capable of governing and
meeting the people's demands.
At the end, the politicalprisoners of Ardabil Prison also stressed boycotting the election, "as we
explained some fundamental problems with the election, and we the political
prisoners expect the conscious people of Iran to make logical and right
decisions with a broad perspective and sense of responsibility towards the
future of Iran. We ask you not to participate in the Presidential Election so
that the regime will not continue its oppression, injustice, and abuse against
the people of Iran anymore."
Mrs. MaryamRajavi, President-elect Council of Resistance of Iran said:
The regime's election shams have always been boycotted by the
Iranian people and Resistance since June 20, 1981.
