Farhad Meisami’s mother also goes on a hunger strike.
Farhad Meisami’s lawyer, in his first case in 2018, went on a hunger strike in support of Nasrin Sotoudeh and Reza Khandan in Evin prison.
This hunger strike ended with the promises made to him by the authorities.
He was then exiled to Rajai Shahr prison and once again went on a hunger strike, but this matter was not covered by the media so as not to upset the people. It is strange because people go on hunger strikes to convey a message to the public, but he goes on a hunger strike in secret.
His latest hunger strike, which the images of it have recently been released, started after the recent events and the death of Mahsa Amini.
I once asked him about the danger of death due to his hunger strike, and he said that the possibility of death exists every moment, but because he is a doctor himself and is familiar with human anatomy, he knows what he is doing.
Although Farhad’s mother is very upset and suffers from her son’s distance, she respects his wishes and ideas. In some periods, Farhad Meisami’s mother has gone on a hunger strike with her son.
