Amnesty International has released a report identifying 87 individuals believed to be responsible for the violent suppression of the "Woman, Life, Freedom" movement in Iran in 2022. The movement, which began after the death of Mahsa Amini—a 22-year-old woman who was detained by Iran's morality police—sparked widespread protests demanding greater rights for women and broader freedoms. The NGO has called for legal action against these individuals, accusing them of committing "crimes against humanity" during the crackdown. The report details how Iranian security forces killed hundreds of demonstrators and bystanders, including many children, during the protests that took place between September and December 2022. Amnesty also highlights the widespread use of arbitrary arrests, forced disappearances, torture, and other forms of abuse. The organization has documented 16 confirmed cases of rape, including victims as young as 14, as well as 29 other cases of sexual violence. These acts, the NGO argues, align with the definition of crimes against humanity due to their systematic and widespread nature. Among the 87 individuals named in the report are 62 commanders from the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps and police forces, as well as 25 officials from the Ministry of the Interior. The report states that these individuals should be investigated for their roles in the violence. Notably, the former Supreme Leader of Iran, Ali Khamenei, and the former chief of the armed forces are included in the list, despite Khamenei having died in an American strike in 2026. The report emphasizes that the violence was not the result of individual actions but was organized by the government to suppress the protests and instill fear among the population. Amnesty International has criticized the Iranian regime for its failure to hold those responsible accountable, stating that the country is "neither willing nor capable" of delivering justice. In response, the NGO is calling on the United Nations Security Council to refer the situation in Iran to the International Criminal Court. It also urges the United Nations General Assembly to create an international mechanism to prosecute those most responsible for crimes against humanity. Additionally, Amnesty is advocating for national courts around the world to open investigations using the principle of universal jurisdiction, which allows countries to prosecute serious crimes committed abroad, regardless of where the perpetrators or victims are from.
