Tha Just

they had against an elderly
Jew," the report said.
"All that Mechubad had
done, however, was to try
and maintain contact with
his family," some of whom
live in Israel, the report said.
Mr. Mechubad was a dig-
nitary of the remaining Jew-
ish community in Iran,
which is estimated as
numbering between 15,000
to 25,000.
There were 80,000 Jews in
Iran before the shah was
deposed and a Moslem state
was established there in the
late 1970s.
The WJC protested the
killing before the United
Nations Human Rights
Commission in Geneva.
The U.N. panel adopted a
resolution which for the first
time condemned anti-
Semitism.
At a news conference
following that session,
Morris Abram, a former
U.N. official and past presi-
dent of American Jewish
groups, protested "this bar-
baric act" and asked that the
U.N. Human Rights Com-
mission "investigate this
shocking development."
The execution of Mr.
Mechubad is the first known
summary killing of a Jew in
Iran since the late 1970s,
after the Ayatollah
Ruhollah Khomeini return-
ed in triumph to that coun-
Jews were executed as
spies at that time, but "we
don't know of an execution of
any Jews in Iran since the
beginning of the Khomeini
revolution," said Elan
Steinberg, WJC executive
director.
Mr. Mechubad was also
reportedly tortured and his
body ravaged after his kill-
ing. According to the WJC,
Mr. Mechubad's eyes were
gouged out and his face and
body bore signs that he had
been tortured during his im-
prisonment.
According to the report,
"Information that has leak-
ed out of Evin Prison sug-
gests that when Mechubad
denied the false accusations
against him, he was sub-
jected to extensive physical
and mental torture," and
denied most visits, "save for
sporadic visits of no more
than 20 minutes long that
were allowed once every few
months."
The report said Mr.
Mechubad's family was ask-
ed to retrieve his body on
Feb. 26 from a Moslem
cemetery.
There, it was reported,
"with the help of an under-
taker, they found the mound
of earth beneath which
Mechubad had been buried.
