Protesting student at Yasouj University detained

Human Rights House of IRAN -- This university student had sewn his lips and shackled himself to the university gates in protest when security agents arrested him and transferred him to an unknown location.

According to a report by Jaras website, Dariush Jalali, a materials engineering university student, staged a protest by sewing his lips and shackling himself to the university gates. Security agents violently arrested him and beat him up before taking him to an undisclosed location.

Jalali had been arrested last year during 24 Bahman protests and was held behind bars for 3 months. Since his release, security agents at the university harassed him and placed this student under consistent threats, maltreatment and abuse. Jalali was so abused he saw no other alternative but to show his protest by sewing his lips and shackling himself to the university gates.

There is still no news about this student’s condition or whereabouts.
