Two More Weeks for Akbar Ganji

Kamangir | March 17, 2006 | Category Iran

Akbar Ganji standing in fron of a newspaper showing a cartoon about his fifth year in jail. The title reads “Defending All Iranians”.
Today was the date in which Akbar Ganji should have been released after a six- year sentence behind the bars for convictions like “threatening the national security” and “bothering the nation’s opinion”. To me, these sentences read very simple; he talked about something they do not want people to talk about, government’s legitimacy. He published a deceleration regarding “demanding the republic” in which he talks about the real republic system and how much the current system is far from it. Hence, I think they were very right in putting him there. Even I would kill him if I were them.
Akbar Ganji is going to stay there for two more weeks (see) and I can not imagine what that means to a man suffering from months of hunger strike and living in a cell.
