The clinic of prison had said to the Tehran prosecutor’s office in a letter that the continuation of this situation could lead to myocardial infarction, due to the “a substantial drop in blood pressure and heart rate and heart problems”.
According to the Human Rights Activists News Agency in Iran (HRANA), the judicial authorities, due to the letter, asked his family to encourage him to break the strike because, according to them, it would not help.
The activist has declared a hunger strike and said that the strike will continue until he achieves his demands. “Dispatched to medical leave, implementation of the order of disability to serve” are his demands.
The security authorities have refused so far to release the political prisoner or send him to furlough, despite the various diseases and the issuing the certification of intolerance by the forensic.
