On the 20th anniversary of the assassination of the
Kurdish leader and former General-Secretary of the

Every year, since the assassination of Dr.
Ghassemlou on 13 July 1989 by the Islamic Republic
of Iran, the PDKI has called on the Kurdish nation
in Iranian Kurdistan to commemorate Dr. Ghassemlou
as well as to condemn the Islamic regime’s policies
of assassination and terrorism by engaging in
various forms of peaceful political protest.
This year, like previous years, the markets,
shopping centres and individual shops all over
Iranian Kurdistan were closed. Furthermore,www.ekurd.net

Iranian Kurdistan have assembled in large numbers
dressed in traditional Kurdish clothes to
symbolically express their condemnation of the
