"In this election, women, members of religious minorities and candidates with dissenting views were barred from running."

The election of a president means that he is the first president of the Iranian regime to be sanctioned by the United States before entering office for his role in a human rights violation in 1988.

The Treasury Department sanctioned the director, citing reports about his role in the execution of the child and the arrest of lawyers for defending political prisoners and human rights defenders.

The Iranian opposition has noted its leading role in the "Death Commission", which ordered the execution of thousands of political prisoners in 1988. Iranian political prisoners were asked to identify themselves, and those who claimed to be "Mujahideen" were sent to the death squad, while according to a 1990 Amnesty International report, some were asked to "clear minefields for the military." The "Iranian regime" was questioned.
