Amir Nasr Azadani Goes on Hunger Strike After Being Transferred to Solitary Confinement

Amir Nasr Azadani went on a hunger strike following his transfer to solitary confinement.

The personal Instagram page of this political prisoner announced that today, April 5th, Mr. Azadani was transferred to solitary confinement on the orders of the Ministry of Intelligence due to the activities of this prisoner’s social media pages and the release of a message from him outside the prison, and he has gone on a hunger strike in protest of this action.

Amir Reza Nasr Azadani, born in 1995, was raised in Sepahan Academy of Isfahan and played in Iran’s Premier League with the teams Rah Ahan and Tractor. In the year leading up to his arrest, he was a member of the Iranjavan Bushehr Club.

While legal experts had expressed numerous criticisms regarding the manner of arrest, the court proceedings, the process of legal representation, and the method of extracting confessions from the defendants in the case known as the Isfahan House, Majid Kazemi, Saleh Mirhashmi, and Saeed Yaghoubi were executed.

Amir Nasr Azadani has been sentenced to 16 years in prison for aiding in moharebeh (enmity against God) and five years in prison for charges of assembly and collusion leading to anti-security crimes.
