16 Iranian Journalists Still in Prison


16 Iranian journalists were arrested more than two weeks ago. They remain in the notorious Evin prison. Iranian authorities are ignoring the worldwide requests to release these journalists. It seems that the June’s presidential election is too important for the Judiciary chief to let these independent journalists continue their reporting of what they see in the country.

I certainly hope so, and would you care sharing your source with us? I just want to make sure you are creating false hope for their friends and families.
