TEHRAN, April 4 (Xinhua) -- Iran on Saturday executed two more members of the Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO), designated by Iran as a terrorist group, for joining several "terror attacks and explosions" in Tehran aimed at toppling the country's establishment, Iran's official media reported.
The MKO members, identified as Abolhassan Montazer and Vahid Baniamerian, were hanged following judicial proceedings and upholding of their death sentences by the Supreme Court of Iran, reported the Mizan news agency of the Iranian judiciary.
According to authorities, they had carried out operations against Iran's important centers and public places through firing launchers, and were planning for another "terror" operation when arrested.
They faced charges such as armed uprising against Iran's establishment through involvement in "terror attacks and explosions," membership in the MKO, which is accused of assassinating tens of thousands of Iranian citizens, and harming national security.
Iran already executed four MKO members over similar charges on Monday and Tuesday. ■
