NCRI – A journalist serving time for his anti-government writings in the Tehran's notorious Evin prison revealed that as a precondition to having weekly visits with his family he must attend Friday Prayer sermons, according to Resistance sources in Iran.<\/p>\n
He and other jail mates from ward 350 were called to Bozorgun, the prison warden, office where they were advised to participate in Fridays' sermons if they wish to keep their weekly visits. <\/p>\n
The political prisoner then was told that he must sign a committal before anything else. <\/p>\n
Pressuring political prisoners to enter pleas and do things against their wills has a long history in mullahs' regime which goes back to the early 1980s. <\/p>\n
However, if the prisoner refuses to comply with the jail keepers' demands he would be risking his life. The latest was that of Mr. Abdolreza Rajabi's murdered in the hands of the mullahs' executioners in Evin prison in October. He was a member of the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MKE). <\/p>\n
On November 2, the PMOI issued a statement on Rajabi's case which reads in part:
The henchmen of the mullahs' regime murdered Rajabi, a member of the PMOI, under torture in Gohardasht prison on October 30. Prior to his death, he was transferred to an isolation ward specially designed for political prisoners in the notorious Tehran Evin prison.
On, October 26, he was moved, with no explanation, to Gohardasht prison, some 40 kilometers west of the capital. <\/p>\n
Despite efforts by the Iranian regime to keep it as a secret, Rajabi in a telephone contact managed to inform his family of the transfer. His call was suddenly cut short since the agents were monitoring the call. <\/p>\n
He was born in 1962 in Mahidasht an area west of the western province of Kermanshah. In early 2001, Rajabi was arrested by agents of the Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) and was severely wounded. <\/p>\n
