In July 2021, supporters of Iran’s exiled opposition leader rallied in Berlin and elsewhere to demand the prosecution of the country’s newly elected president, Ebrahim Raisi, who was being accused of crimes against humanity

President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, Maryam Rajavi accused Raisi of being the "henchman" responsible for the massacre of 30,000 political prisoners in 1988

Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch said it was the extrajudicial executions of thousands of political prisoners

Calling for an investigation into Raisi’s role in the case, the two organizations said his election was a blow for human rights

Iran never acknowledged the mass executions and Raisi never publicly addressed the allegations over his role

Some clerics said the trials were fair, praising the "eliminating" of armed opposition in the early years of the 1979 Islamic revolution.
