Iran Denies UN Claims of Christian Persecution 01/26/2021 Iran (International Christian Concern) – A special United Nations investigation group recently released a report outlining concern for Iran’s “systematic persecution of Christians”. The report was made public months after the original publication after Iran failed to respond by the January 10 deadline. The UN experts highlighted 24 Christians who are currently in prison or facing charges. According to their report they “ wish to express our serious concern at the reported widespread repression against and persecution of persons belonging to the Christian minority in Iran, and in particular those who have converted from Islam”. The report accused Iran of failing to provide fair legal proceedings, including formulated charges, lack of due process and legal harassment. Specifically, charges against Christians for threats against national security and propaganda against the state were called out.
