From Peykeiran in Persian:
http://web.peykeiran.com/net_iran/irnewsbody.aspx?ID=16599
Based on the latest news from the families of political prisoners on a hunger strike at Iran's infamous Evin prison, the regime has cut off all communication including phone calls between the prisoners and their families. Families of the hunger strikers who are worried about their loved ones, have contacted prison authorities for news or communciation of some kind, but have so far failed to get any news or contact. Many of the political prisoners who are held and tortured at Evin prison, started a hunger strike on Monday. This hunger strike is in solidarity with the brave students and people of Iran on the anniversary of the 1999 student uprising (18 Tir/July 8th), and in protest to the massive repression measures that have been implemented throughout the country. The majority of the hunger strikers are in the first section of Evin prison (Band e Yek), and they have announced that this is an indefinate hunger strike. |
