پرستو فروهر، دختر داريوش و پروانه فروهر، دو رهبر حزب ملت ايران كه در جريان قتل هاي زنجيره اي به قتل رسيدند، در مصاحبه با راديوآزادي مي گويد براي جلوگيري از اينكه به نام خانواده ما احكام قتلي صادر شود و بگويند متهمان قتل هاي زنجيره اي به اشد مجازات محكوم شدند و به نام خانواده فروهر اعدام شدند، نامه اي رسما به كنسولگري جمهوري اسلامي در فرانكفورت ابلاغ شد. وي مي افزايد ما در اطلاعيه خود گفتيم كه تقاضاي مجازات مرگ نداريم ولي به هيچ وجه گذشت نكرديم براي اينكه چارچوب كلي اين پرونده را ما قبول نداريم و روند رسيدگي به آن در جهت پنهان شدن حقايق اصلي اين روند بود و نمي توانيم با اين عمل موافق باشيم. محمدنيازي، رئيس سازمان قضائي نيروهاي مسلح در مصاحبه مطبوعاتي خود گفت در واكنش بازماندگان فروهر ها به اطلاعيه خود تعجب كرده است. وي در آن اطلاعيه تخفيف مجازات عاملان اين قتل ها از اعدام به ده سال حبس را ناشي از گذشت خانواده فروهر قلمداد كرده بود. پروانه فروهر مي افزايد: متهمان اين پرونده طبق دستور سازماني عمل كردند و خودشان در اعترافات خود بارها عنوان مي كردند كه حذف فيزيكي مخالفان سياسي جزو چارت عملياتي و وظايف سازماني آنها در وزارت اطلاعات بود. پرستو فروهر مي افزايد: اقدام آنها فقط در بستر فكري و سازماني آنچه آنها خود را به آن متعهد مي دانند قابل بررسي و محاكمه است نه به صورت مجرد و در چارچوب قتل عمد آن طور كه اين پرونده سعي مي كند قضيه را نشان دهد.
