‘Rate of killing in Iran is 4 instances worse than Srebrenica’, says former UN prosecutor

At least 33,000 individuals have been killed by safety forces in Iran in latest days in violence on a scale that’s "unprecedented", based on a former UN prosecutor and human rights lawyer.

Payam Akhavan described "accounts of black body bags piling up in morgues and refrigerator trucks dumping bodies in mass graves" and says "Iranians today are deeply traumatised."

He advised Sky’s Yalda Hakim "the rate of killing in Iran is four times worse than Srebrenica," one of many worst atrocities from the Yugoslav battle, which he beforehand labored on as a UN prosecutor.
