Because according to the report and announcement of Lorestan road police, the cause Tame The accident and falling to the bottom of the valley was caused by the carelessness of the driver and high speed. This question arises that despite the online system Sepahten And filming the driver's mental and emotional states, lack of drowsiness or speed control, how was this driver not warned or the police did not take action to stop it?

And the inability to control the bus has caused this great disaster; We expect the authorities to declare martyrdom for these soldiers while respecting the bereaved families.

Also, according to the law, the children of each province must serve in the same province.

This means that the bus driver crosses a part of the route on the freeway and goes to Kermanshah through the same road as Poldakhter.

The Deputy Director of Transport of the General Department of Roads and Road Transport of Khuzestan pointed out that the route they are taking to Kermanshah is the same route and has been traveled correctly, adding: there is no requirement for the drivers to follow the route, that is, there is no prohibition to choose the routes traveled.

Soldiers should be declared martyrs

Hadih Hamidi, the aunt of soldier Hossein Hamidi, also in a conversation with Mehr reporter He stated: Hossein was born on the 5th of November 2002 and died two months before his 21st birthday.

He added: He had a post-graduate diploma in programming and had registered for the new semester and undergraduate studies, but by withdrawing from this semester, he took action to send the military service booklet.

Hamidi clarified: My brother has three children; Mahbubeh was the eldest daughter, Maysam was the second child and Hossein was the third child of the family. On the day of the incident, the house was very crowded, but on the second day, the commander of the Ahvaz Police Force came with a delegation.

Pointing out that on the day of the funeral, the police force was present for the funeral, he added: Colonel Azizi called from the Lorestan Police Command to receive the belongings, and my brother and my other two brothers took the belongings, but Hossein's phone was missing. Part of There were no tools.

Hamidi went through Hossein's memories with a grudge and explained the situation of his mother who always stood in front of the house with a Quran and a container of water and said: His mother still has not come to terms with this heat and is going through difficult times. Hossein and other sent soldiers were sent to defend this border with the order received from Naja. According to the constitution, from the time of filling the notebook until the end of the military service, everyone is considered a soldier of the homeland.

He emphasized: These young soldiers became full soldiers because the system and the country were important to them, so they left their studies and went to the army. Our only request is that the honor of martyrdom be a record for them and a salve for the wounds in the hearts of the families.

Pointing out that we may not be prosperous, but we are able to provide for our own lives, Hamidi said: Sardar Hajti, the Director General of the Foundation for the Preservation and Publication of Sacred Defense Values, also had a meeting with the family. He requested these soldiers; Sardar also announced the follow-up of Sardar Radan with the promise of assistance and said, “God willing, they will deliver good news.”

According to the reporter of Mehr, in the situation where these soldiers in their holy military clothes suffered this tragic accident on the first day of their service, their bereaved families complained about the lack of public mourning at least at the provincial level, with the aim of showing sympathy and soothing their hearts. which was not a big request; Even though this declaration of public mourning is not accompanied by closure.

But another point is the delay of the Martyr Foundation in announcing the status of martyrdom for the soldiers killed in this incident as martyrs because they were wearing military uniforms and were being sent to the border guard barracks to defend the country. Shahid Foundation has refused to declare martyrdom for them.

Another important point is that new roads are built due to wear and tear and the end of the useful life of the old roads, and despite the new road, why do drivers still use the old roads and there is no requirement to use the new highways?
