Just in the last few months, we saw the arrest of Farangis Mazloom, despite her sickness, because she was defending her son, Soheil Arabi. Alireza Shirmohammadi’s mother, because she didn’t have the 80 million toman to post bail, lost her son in prison. Rahele Asl Ahmadi, because she wanted freedom for her daughter, Saba Kurdafshari, was arrested; and many other cases.” </reference> </coverage-outsourcing>
