Another protest against the Iranian government will take place in the city centre.

People will gather outside Churchill Square, Brighton, at 1pm on Saturday to demonstrate in the fifth protest of its kind in recent weeks. 

It follows a swathe of protests in Iran and across the world after Masha Amini, a 22-year-old Kurdish woman, died after being detained by Iranian morality police. 

Ali Forouzandeh, an Iranian man who has lived in Brighton for 25 years, has attended many of the previous protests in the city and will be there on Saturday.

He said: "We will carry on until something changes."

Mr Forouzandeh, 52, said the Iranian government are "terrorists and dictators."

"Every day, the Government are shooting innocent young people in the street.

"They are controlling people by shutting down the internet and killing people who rebel."

He said leaders across the world are being "complacent."

"Everyone knows what is going on. Governments like the UK and the USA are not doing enough," said Mr Forouzandeh.

Activists said the government’s crackdown on protesters has intensified recently.

Mr Forouzandeh encouraged people to attend the protest on Saturday, and warned of the wider implications of the situation in Iran.

"This type of government could spread across the world. We have to bring them down."

Earlier this week, Iran protestors targeted the BBC building in Queen's Road.

They gathered there to criticise the broadcaster for its coverage of the unrest in Iran.

A large group of people accused the organisation of "silence" on the issue, chanting "BBC, shame on you."

Banatshe Babapoor, who attended the protest against the broadcaster, told The Argus: “We are unhappy about it because by being silent they are supporting this regime.

She added: "Iranian people are under a lot of pressure and we want our voice to be heard all over the world.”

A spokewoman for the BBC said: “The purpose of our journalism is to report the truth about events in Iran in an independent and impartial way.

"BBC News Persian journalists have has been committed to covering all angles of the protests in Iran in depth, working around the clock to establish the facts, verify footage, and hear first-hand from people in the country.

"Our journalists are also facing untrue allegations, online abuse and in some cases, physical harassment, simply for doing their jobs.

"We condemn all harassment of our BBC Persian colleagues and we are committed to bringing their journalism – needed now more than ever – to our audience of millions in Iran and beyond.”
