Facts
Assessment
Reliability TierA specialist human rights documentation center producing an evidence-based, footnoted tally rather than a rounded advocacy figure, the same tier this corpus already gives Human Rights Watch (53461) for its own contemporaneous massacre reporting. NotesStates that 202 Baha'is have been executed, killed or kidnapped since 1979, with a further 14 dying in prison, of whom 193 killed or kidnapped and 13 prison deaths fall within 1979 to 1989 alone. Used here as the documented ceiling against the community's own rounder approximately two hundred figure, the two converging closely and both concentrating in the 1980s. 1 Citation
