After the interrogator refused to release her son from prison before Norooz [Iranian New Year], Farangis Davoodi, Kaveh Kermanshahi’s mother, has decided to set up a sofre haft-sin [traditional decorative set up for the Iranian New Year] outside the prison so she can be present with her child on the holiday.
On Wednesday March 17, 2010, Kaveh’s mother, just like several times before, requested a temporary release or a meeting with her son. As of now, the detention centre in Kermanshah has not provided her with any solutions.
Additionally, interrogator Shirzadi has stated days ago that it is unlikely that Kaveh will be released any time before April 4, 2010.
After 40 days of detention for Kaveh Ghasemi Kermanshahi, there is still no information on the arrest or the charges laid against him. Kaveh’s mother has had only one short meeting with her son. In recent days, many political prisoners have been released from prison for Norooz.
Kaveh Ghasemi Kermanshahi was arrested on February 3, 2010 during an assault by security forces on his home.
Kaveh is a journalist, human rights activist, and Human Rights Watch spokesperson for Kurdistan. He is also member of the One Million Signatures Campaign in Kermanshah, member of Zhiar [Kermanshah organization] [editor's note: Zhiar Kermanshah Organization is an organization that had its permit revoked in June 2008], and member of Advar Tahkim Vahdat [student organization].
