Sourena Hashemi Released on Bail

RAHANA
Zanjan University student Sourena Hashemi was released on bail on April 4, 2010 after spending more than three months of detention in Evin prison’s ward 209. Hashemi was arrested on January 1, 2010, together with Alireza Firouzi during a trip to Orumiyeh (capital of the province of West Azerbaijan, northwest Iran).

Before February 10, 2010, regime officials denied reports that the two friends were detained. Their families also had no information on their location or condition.

Alireza Firouzi’s case still remains unknown. Based on reports processed by security agencies, it seems Firouzi’s continuing arrest is linked to [his work in] human rights activism.
