State media stated that a Swedish-Iranian dissident convicted of organizing an Arab separatist organization that attacked a military parade in 2018 and murdered 25 people was hanged on Saturday.

The Swedish foreign ministry summoned Iran’s deputy ambassador to protest Habib Farajollah Chaab’s death earlier that day.

Chaab was executed for being “corrupt on earth” under Iran’s harsh Islamic rules.
In 2022, Iran tried to organize the Arab Struggle Movement for the Liberation of Ahwaz, which wants a separate state in the oil-rich Khuzestan province in southwestern Iran, and planned and executed “numerous bombings and terrorist operations.”

In 2020, Iran announced its security officers captured Chaab in Turkey and brought him to Tehran without providing specifics.

Tobias Billstrom, Sweden’s Foreign Minister, expressed “dismay” over Chaab’s death.

“The death penalty is an inhuman and irreversible punishment and Sweden, together with the rest of the EU, condemns its application under all circumstances,” he added.

Sweden was concerned about Chaab’s case, and ties with Iran had strained after a Swedish court’s life sentence for a former Iranian official for his role in the 1988 Islamic Republic’s mass execution of political detainees.

Iran accuses Arabs, Kurds, Azeris, and Baluch of uniting with neighboring nations.

Iran denies discrimination against Arabs and other minorities.
