Urgent Request: Protest Upcoming Execution
December 24, 2010Rising Prices Hurt in Iran
December 26, 2010Masih Alinejad’s interview with the sister of Iranian-Kurdish prisoner of conscience, Habibolah Latifi can be read over at EA WorldView. His sister reports, “My parents are elderly and I don’t dare give them the news regarding my brother’s execution, therefore they are still unaware of the news. I myself am not in a good situation either, but I have pursued his case until now, and will continue doing so.”
Habibolah Latifi is one of many Iranian-Kurds accused of capital crimes. Last May, four were executed, despite evidence that they were innocent. Amnesty International and United4Iran have letter-writing campaigns to protest the planned execution.
