Is this the Outcome of a Decade Struggle against Authoritarianism?

At the threshold of the thirty eighth year of the establishment of Islamic State in Iran, this question should be addressed: what is the reason for the persistence of this regime? Aside from the reasons which are obvious to everyone, one of the most important causes is the lack of confidence of the majority of the people towards political activists and those who pretend to defend human rights; and even though the Iranian nation are now in a state of gradual and painful death, no effective movement or uprising can be seen on their behalf. Indeed, the basic question of the Iranian citizens is who will take control of this territory after this regime?

Announcement on Anniversary of the Iranian Revolution

The movement began thirty eight years ago in Iran in the name of religion, had no other outcome but that of imprisonment and endless tortures for antidictatorship opponents. Our teacher’s father, Seyed Mohammad Ali Kazemeini Boroujerdi, who was one of the most prominent religious scientists of the country, was constantly facing pressures and sabotages of the regime during his life.

Aversion to Evil Chess Moves Played in Global Politics

It is indeed a sad matter to see the Iranian people place their hopes on Iranian political maneuverers who have disgraced their honor, dignity and conscience for material and immoral dealings, and who are not bound by any humanitarian commitments and moral interactions. It is absolutely regretful and unfortunate that they suggest to our wounded and ailing teacher, who has suffered eleven years of degradation, decrepitude and disintegration in the Evin prison, to either act as the leader of the people by placing them against bullets, or else to give them money so that they may show some kind of a support for his movement.

The Difference of the Shah’s Regime with that of the Islamic Republic

In the era which the current rulers of Iran consider as the period of evil power, religious scholars had enough freedom and independence in order to publish and develop their religious thoughts, and the political regime was not disturbing them. The Islamic sources were able to conduct their research and preaching, and apart from Khomeini, they did not face a significant opposition. During that period of time the country’s leader would pay his respect to the highest ranking scholar of the nation, and would show that spirituality is placed under the auspices of politics.

Medical examinations

Mr. Seyed Hossein Kazemeini Boroujerdi is currently under treatment due to numerous illnesses which he has developed during the 11 years of imprisonment; because of the extent and the severity of his physical condition, it has only been possible to carry out diagnostic and detection procedures of his illnesses during this time, and the treatment and care stage has not started yet. During this period, various blood and urine tests, MRI, CT scans, dental examinations, ECG and electromyography ( EMG), Spine X-ray, respiratory, pulmonary and spirometry tests, ophthalmic (eye) exams were done, which are revealing of how the regime has treated this political- ideological prisoner during these eleven years.

Mr.Kazemeini Boroujerdi

Mr. Seyed Hossein Kazemeini Boroujerdi is a progressive Iranian religious leader who advocates the separation of religion from politics, and supports peace, democracy, freedom and human rights. He initially began his religious and social activities in 1980 based on the concepts of Islam, which is the major religion of Iran. Meanwhile, at this time, the Islamic state of Iran was established based on the ruling of Islamic clerics. Mr. Boroujerdi, however, established a different movement in accordance with the peaceful aspects of the religions and promoted secularism.

Trump's Great Iranian Opportunity

BY MICHAEL LEDEEN 
The great Ayatollah Hossein Boroujerdi is briefly out of prison, where he had been held in miserable conditions for a decade. He is one of those dissidents who are so beloved by the Iranian people that the murderous regime of Ali Khamenei does not dare to put them to death, or even on trial.  They torture them instead, hoping that they will die of “natural causes.”

Medical Leave for Mr. Boroujerdi after 11 Years of Continuous Imprisonment

Following the severe deterioration of Mr. Seyed Hossein Kazemini Boroujerdi’s physical condition - this prisoner of conscience who had been forced into accepting serious conditions imposed by the special Court of the Clergy, including a bail in the amount of three hundred million Toomans and bailment by two bail bondsmen, was sent out for a medical leave this morning, Wednesday, January 4^th 2017 for a limited time.

International Day of Human Rights

Greeting to all

I am Maryam from Iran. I was a lecturer in university and I was teaching in Chemistry.

However, I had been arrested and jailed because of my beliefs.

I was advocating separation of religion from politics, because I believed that secularism is a way for people to enjoy their human rights. 

Authorities of Evin Prison and the Court of Clergy neglect the critical situation of Mr. Boroujerdi

Based on the recent reports from Evin prison, Mr. Kazemeini Boroujerdi’s physical situation is seriously critical as he is suffering from unknown and suspicious pains, so that his life has become impossible. While visiting his family on Saturday 12 November 2016, he was not able to stand or even to sit on the chair due to sever pains, so he left them and returned to the prison ward.

After 10 Years Jail, Mr. Kazemeini Boroujerdi’s Health Declined

Based on recent reports received from Iran, on Saturday and Sunday (5 and 6 November 2016), Mr. Kazemeini Boroujerdi has been transferred two times to the Evin clinic due to extreme low back pain and bone pains especially in his feet. 

Amnesty International Highly Concerned about the Situation of Mr. Kazemeini Boroujerdi

Iran’s criminal justice system is notorious for imprisoning people merely for peacefully exercising their human rights. However, the legal framework relating to the rights of prisoners guarantees, in theory that they should at least benefit from adequate medical care. Iran’s prison regulations require the prison administration to provide prisoners with regular medical check-ups, and ensure that their medical needs are addressed. They also provide that prisoners may be granted medical leave or transferred to treatment centres outside prison when the care they need is not available in prison. Iran’s Code of Criminal Procedure further authorizes judges to postpone the implementation of a prison sentence when imprisonment would exacerbate the illness of the prisoner, or to issue an alternative sentence if the individual is deemed too ill to serve.
