Political prisoner, Hossein Ronaghi
Blogger Hossein Ronaghi was arrested in December 2009 by IRGC intelligence on charges of “insulting the Supreme Leader, Khamenei” and “insulting the President Rouhani”. He was sentenced to 15 years imprisonment.
Ronaghi is afflicted to several physical deficiencies such as respiratory, heart problem, kidney disorder, stomach bleeding and . . . , but the prison authorities neither provide him with medical services, nor allow him to go to hospital on his own expenses. Further he is kept among ordinary and criminal prisoners.
Ronaghi started a hunger strike on Saturday March 26th to protest Khamenei’s agents depriving him of medical attention. Ahmad Ronaghi, Hossen’s father, has announced that he would also go on hunger strike if his son’s demand for medical attention is not met.
