Mehdi Mahmoudian, a journalist and member of the Participation Front is in poor condition in prison.
In a recent phone call with his family, he complained that prison officials were oblivious to his condition.
This journalist and human rights activist passed out last week in prison. He has been suffering from lung infection for two months but prison agents have kept him in cold temperatures with unsuitable clothes despite being aware of his condition.
Mahmoudian has been jailed for 7 months in Evin Prison and was only recently able to see his little daughter.
He was the first person to reveal the inhumane and illegal treatment of prisoners in the Kahrizak Detention Center two years ago.
