Friday 18 March 2011Arash Sadeghi Transferred to Solitary Confinement Again!
RAHANA — After enduring severe torture and being subjected to intense pressures, Arash Sadeghi has again been transferred to solitary confinement by prison officials. According to Daneshjoo News, Arash has been subjected to brutal interrogations and torture for going public on the circumstances that led to his mother’s death and giving interviews to news organizations not in line with the regime. According to reports, Arash was severely beaten and tortured, resulting in his shoulder being broken. After he somewhat sustained from his injuries, the prison officials intended to take him to the hospital, but Arash objected to having his hands and feet shackled, and refused to go unless the shackles were removed. After Arash took this stance, prison officials were aggravated by his perseverance and resistance, so they transferred him to solitary confinement once again. It is reported that Arash was attacked because he refuted the regime’s account of the circumstances resulting in his mother’s death. He is also under intense pressure due to his refusal to give interviews to state-run media. Meanwhile, his prison furlough request for the Persian New Year was denied. He is now required to spend the first month of the New Year by himself in solitary confinement. It is worth mentioning, previously, Arash’s family had brought clothes for him in prison, but prison officials did not allow the clothes to be delivered. They also said that Arash is not allowed any visitors. |
