Iranian Commander’s Daughter Alleges Regime’s Brutality Against Citizens

An Iranian commander’s daughter has publicly denounced the brutal actions of the regime, claiming that leaders are now turning against their own children in a violent crackdown on dissent. Speaking to the Persian media outlet Manato TV on October 5, 2023, the woman described the harrowing reality of the Islamic Republic as she broke down in tears, revealing that her father has ordered her to kill innocent civilians.

In her emotional account, she stated, “They are killing their own children, suppressing them,” referring to the military commanders responsible for the ongoing violence against anti-regime protesters. The daughter, who has faced physical abuse for her participation in protests, expressed fear for her own safety after speaking out. “I have witnessed the crimes that my own father has committed,” she lamented, branding him a violent member of the regime’s repressive forces. “I hate him. We do not want this,” she added.

The daughter further alleged that commanders are not only engaging in violence themselves but are also coercing their own children into participating in the killings of demonstrators. “They are giving them batons, electric batons, guns, to go and kill fellow citizens,” she said. She described how her father had directly ordered her to partake in this brutality.

A disturbing insight into the regime’s preparations for potential fallout revealed that many leaders, including her father, are allegedly stockpiling cash and escape plans. She claimed, “My father has hidden suitcases of dollars in the house. He keeps calling me to come. If anything happens, you know these will be the first ones who run away.” This statement underscores the perception that the regime’s leaders are prioritizing their own safety over the lives of citizens.

In a desperate plea, she vowed to expose the atrocities committed by her father and other regime leaders, regardless of the risks to her safety. “My father might kill me. Maybe they might find out,” she said. “I’ll tell you who these people are, what dirty deeds they did. They started at home, raping their children. Do you know what pain we have seen from these hard-hearted fathers?”

As protests continue to escalate across Iran, her account highlights the severe human impact of the regime’s actions. The daughter’s testimony brings attention to the internal conflict within families affected by the oppressive rule, revealing the heartbreaking choices faced by those who oppose the regime’s brutality.

The ongoing situation in Iran raises urgent questions about accountability and the future of those resisting the oppressive regime. The daughter’s courageous stand against her father’s actions serves as a stark reminder of the tragic consequences of political violence on personal lives.
