Batebi’s Wife Is Abducted, Batebi in Starvation
Kamangir | February 22, 2007 | Category Iran

Ahmad Batebi has reportedly started a dry starvation after hearing the reports about the abduction of his wife, Somaiieh Bayenat. His wife’s brother mentioned to BBC earlier today that his sister has been arrested by individuals resembling intelligence personnel, after they showed her a document, probably an arrest warrant. A few minutes before her abduction, in a phone call, she told one of her friends that she felt like being followed for the whole day. Mohammad Abtahi, a close aide to the former president compares Batebi’s case with Jazayeri, the corrupt businessman who fled recently, and writes, “I am afraid he did not have the money to escape”. Both the Police and the Intelligence deny any involvement in the incident.

Arash,
Why no retaliation for acts like this? Why does no one kidnap the wives of basij or mullahs?
Matthew,
I guess you could ask Iraqis why they never tried to kidnap Saddam’s family members.
The families of Iraqis who minded their own business weren’t not treated much better than those who didn’t.
