Pressures on Baha'is in Mazandaran
That this House notes a report of 9 March 2021 by Federation International des Ligues de Droits de L’Homme alerting the world to increased pressures on Baha’is in the province of Mazandaran, Iran; further notes the text of a directive from the Commission on Ethnicities, Sects and Religions in the town of Sari, Mazandaran, dated September 2020; observes that this directive mandates authorities to identify Baha’is students in order to bring them to Islam and to further suppress Baha’i economic activity; and urges the Government to make representations to the Iranian authorities on this matter.
