“The notorious cleric who is expected to be the new president of Iran is a dangerous assassin who spreads terror around the world.” This is the statement of dozens of people who have suffered from his bloody hands.
The 60-year-old Ebrahim Raisi is considered the main contender among the 7 candidates running for the post of President Hassan Rouhani, after the elections that will be held this Friday.
British media write that the hardline cleric is accused of ordering the torture of pregnant women, throwing convicts from the hills and other inhuman tortures.
The so-called “Butcher of 1988” is also the favorite of the spiritual leader of the Islamic Republic, Ali Khamenei, and the local media consider him a candidate without rivals.
