LEADING FIGURE. Iranians gather at Valiasr Square in central Tehran to mourn the death of President Ebrahim Raisi and Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian in a helicopter crash Monday. Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi was confirmed dead after search and rescue teams found his crashed helicopter in a fog-shrouded mountain region, sparking mourning in the Islamic republic.
“Ebrahim Raisi was a symbol of judicial impunity for criminals and the entrenched lack of accountability within the Islamic republic’s system,” Mahmood-Amiry Moghaddam, director of Norway-based group Iran Human Rights, said in a statement to AFP.
