گفت و گوي جرس با پيمان عارف پس از اجراي حکم ۷۴ ضربه شلاق: وحشيانه بود

پيمان عارف، فعال دانشجويي محبوس در بند ۳۵۰ زندان اوين، پس از اجراي حکم ۷۴ ضربه شلاق، به خبرنگار جرس مي گويد: من اينجا در ايراني که احمدي نژاد مي گويد آزادترين کشور جهان است، به جرم توهين به احمدي نژاد شلاق خورده ام به گونه اي که جاي زخم هايش هنورز روي تن ام مانده است و قلبم درد مي کند.

پيمان عارف صبح امروز به اجراي احکام زندان اوين منتقل شد که با پايان دوران محکوميتش آزاد شود اما به گفته خود او لحظاتي پيش از آزادي به اتهام توهين به رياست جمهوري ۷۴ ضربه حکم شلاق او به اجرا در آمده است. (جرس – 17/7/90)
