Sajad Radmehr was arrested on Thursday afternoon, after his thesis presentation, which had been postponed for 6 months by security forces. Dariush Hatami and Faraz Zahtab and Aidin Khajee were also arrested and taken to an unknown place. Security forces searched their house after arresting them.
Sajad Radmehr had been prohibited from presenting his thesis by the security forces of the university. he had been on hunger strike to oppose the decision of the university but he was summoned to the disciplinary committee for his oppositions and was prohibited from education for a semester.
Aidin Khajee and Faraz Zahtab are also student activists in Tabriz University who were prohibited from education for two semesters duo to participating in protests in May last year.
Despite student’s families’ concerns, ministry of intelligence has only said: ” they are with us. Don’t worry!”




one must not forget that one aspect of “security” cases is the image that they carry for the groups that advance such issues. Therefore, before fake charges take to the news-media and become public, those who have had a hand in arresting the students must be weakened. Otherwise, after the severe charges are made public, repeated and are tied to the image of the actors, even the intervention of the head of the judiciary (as history demonstrates) cannot be of much help to the detainees.
How can we tell the judiciary officials of Iran that according to law juveniles can stay alive and continue to live with appropriate and suitable punishment? How must one make this request from the judiciary a public and wide-spread demand and point out that killing a juvenile who has not wholeheartedly committed an act does not solve any of the real problems facing the country?
