The condition, and whereabouts of Behnam Ibrahimzadeh is unknown

 

Behnam Ibrahimzadeh, a blogger and children’s rights activist was arrested on 12 June 2010 in Tehran. He was brutally beaten by the prison guards, and as a result he endured severe injuries to his leg and chest with broken ribs. On 22 July 2010 his family went to the notorious Evin prison to visit him, but they were told by the prison guards that Behnam is no longer detained there, but they refused to disclose his whereabouts.

 

Previously his family was told that he is kept in section 7 of the Evin Prison. In Evin, he has been under an immense physical and mental pressure, and hasn’t been allowed to see his family. He was only has allowed a very brief telephone conversation in which he informed his family about his injuries.

 

Behnam was previously arrested and taken to the Evin prison on May Day 2009, and then he was released after a short while.

 

Campaign to Free Political Prisoners in Iran (CFPPI) is concerned about the life and the safety of Behnam Ibrahimzade. We call on all human rights organisations and concerned individuals to send a protest letter to the heads of the state in Iran, and demand an unconditional release.
