December 6, 2006
In the run up to Student Day on December 7, in fear
of increasing students’ demonstrations and protests,
the inhuman mullahs’ regime has intensified
suppressive measures.
The regime’s suppressive forces have barred some
students from enrolling in graduate schools despite
their academic eligibility. The process of so called
“marking” dissident students has been stepped up; it
is a way to stop them from continuing their higher
education.
Separately, after Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s trip to
northwestern province of Kurdistan, several Kurdish
students at Kurdistan University, due to their
protests against him were prevented from continuing
their education.
The Iranian Resistance calls on all international
organizations and bodies that advocate human rights
and freedom of speech, and on all student
associations and unions throughout the world, to
condemn the suppression of students in Iran and
support the Iranian students’ protests.

Iranian Kurdistan ( Kurdistana Rojhilat (Eastern
Kurdistan) or Rojhilatê Kurdistan (East of
Kurdistan)) is an unofficial name for the parts of
Iran inhabited by Kurds and has borders with Iraq
and Turkey.
It includes the greater parts of West
Azerbaijan province, Kurdistan Province, Kermanshah
Province, and Ilam Province.
Kurds form the majority
of the population of this region with an estimated
population of 4 million. The region is the eastern
part of the greater cultural-geographical area
called Kurdistan.
The Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iran is a Kurdish
opposition group in Iranian Kurdistan which seeks
the attainment of Kurdish national rights within a
democratic federal republic of Iran. The current
General Secretary of the Democratic Party of Iranian
Kurdistan is Mustafa Hijri
"Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan" (PDKI) was
founded in Mahabad, Iran, on August 16, 1945. PDKI
replaced the Komeley Jiyanewey Kurd (Council of
Kurdish Resurrection) which had been formed three
years earlier.
Just 159 days after its foundation in
January 22, 1946, the Party, availing itself of
expedient circumstances in a section of Iranian
Kurdistan, established the " Republic of Kurdistan
", usually referred to by historians as the Republic
of Mahabad , the reason being its choice of Mahabad
as the capital.
