Kianoosh Sanjari appears in court blindfolded, shackled

Iran Press News: According to the latest news, on Monday, December 18th, esteemed political activist and blogger, Kianoosh was permitted to meet with his mother in the ward 209 of Evin prison.

Last week Sanjari was transferred from ward 209 to the Revolutionary Court in order for the judge to talk to Sanjari regarding his release; the condition however was that Sanjari agree and confess [to the bogus charges leveled against him] in accordance with the demands of the ministry of intelligence and security.

According to the report, while objecting to the process of his hearing, Sanjari refused the conditions for his bail and release and was therefore returned once again to ward 209 and solitary confinement. Also during this hearing, Sanjari was deprived of being represented by an attorney. Also in an illegal action, he was brought into court blindfolded and shackled.

Kianoosh Sanjari was re-arrested on Saturday, October 7th during the unrest around the house of Ayatollah Kazemeini-Boroujerdi.
