Petition:
Our dear friend and vital human rights activist Hossein Ronaghi-Maleki (also known under the alias Babak Khorramdin) has been imprisoned by the Iranian Regime since December 13, 2009. During this time there has been little mention regarding his situation and painfully little effort given towards campaigning for his freedom.

Hossein was a member of IranProxy creating anti-filter software for opposing censorship. Before his detainment, he dedicated his time and energy to gathering information about prisoners, creating websites and petitions for them to be set free, as well as writing his own blog campaigning for freedom of expression.

Throughout his detention, Ronaghi-Maleki has been subjected to excruciating physical and psychological torture techniques by his interrogators who want him to participate in televised confessions. He has gone on hunger strike to protest the harsh conditions of his detention and unlawful actions of the intelligence and judicial authorities. 3 days after he started a hunger strike, on May 24, 2010, he was placed in solitary confinement in Tehran’s Evin Prison. On May 31 he was allowed a prison visit with his Mother after she staged a hunger strike outside of Evin. This was the 3rd time in 6 months that the blogger was able to visit with his family. He is said to be in weak physical condition and has difficulty speaking. Ronaghi is suffering from kidney problems and needs surgery. He had been transferred to the prison clinic on January and the medical staff had confirmed that he needs to be transferred to a hospital outside of prison. According to the Human Rights House of Iran, his family had previously been informed that in case of authorization by the “higher officials”, he would be granted furlough on bail.

Please join the fight to save Hossein Ronaghi-Maleki, the way he fought for us, and continues to fight. Sign the petition to condemn the severe injustices and oppression of the Iranian Islamic Regime. Write for him, petition for him.


حسین رونقی ملکی(بابک خرمدین) فعال حقوق بشر در 22 آذر سال 1388 دستگیر شد. در طول این مدت اطلاع رسانی مناسبی در خصوص او و نیز کمپینی برای آزادی او شکل نگرفته است.
حسین یکی از مسئولان ایران پروکسی بود که برای مبارزه با سانسور اقدام به ساخت فیلترشکن می نمودند. او پیش از دستگیری تمام وقت و انرژی خود را صرف اطلاع رسانی در خصوص زندانیان سیاسی و عقیدتی، تنظیم دادخواست و جمع آوری امضاء برای آزادی آنان، و وبلاگ نویسی در خصوص آزادی بیان می کرد. پس از دستگیری او را تحت فشارهای شدید روحی و جسمی قرار دادند برای حضور در مقابل دوربین تلویزیون جهت اخذ اعترافات و پذیرفتن اتهامات ساختگی. وی از تاریخ 2 خرداد 1389 در اعتراض به شرایط غیرعادلانه و فشار و بدرفتاری مسئولان زندان دست به اعتصاب غذا زد و سه روز بعد در تاریخ پنجم خرداد به سلول انفرادی در زندان اوین انتقال یافت.
رونقی ملکی در 10 خرداد اجازه یافت که ملاقات کوتاهی با خانواده خود داشته باشد و این سومین ملاقات او با خانواده پس از 6 ماه بازداشت است. مادر وی نیز در بیرون زندان دست به اعتصاب غذا زده بود. گفته می شود حسین هم اینک در شرایط بسیار بد جسمانی قرار دارد و به سختی قادر به تکلم است. خانواده حسین رونقی ملکی در دی ماه 1389 درخواست اخذ مرخصی در ماه‌های آینده و یا در ایام عید نوروز را به مسئولان قضایی ارائه داده‌اند اما مسئولان، تامین وثیقه بالای یک میلیارد تومان واخذ مجوز از مقامات بالاتر را شرط رسیدگی به درخولست آن‌ها بیان کرده‌اند. حسین رونقی ملکی که در بهمن ماه سال 1389 در زندان اوین دچار عفونت کلیه شده، با کارشکنی های وزارت اطلاعات برای معالجه مواجه است. ماموران وزارت اطلاعات به این زندانی اعلام کردند که در صورتی با اعزام ایشان به بیمارستان موافقت می‌کنند که وی در یک مصاحبه ویدیویی بر علیه خود و دوستانش اعترافاتی را انجام دهد، در غیر این صورت از عمل جراحی کلیه جلوگیری خواهند کرد و دستور به برداشتن کلیه عفونی در داخل زندان خواهند داد.
لطفا برای نجات حسین رونقی ملکی به این پتیشن بپیوندید همانگونه که او برای ما تلاش میکرد. برای محکوم کردن بی عدالتی و سرکوب از جانب رژیم جمهوری اسلامی اینجا را امضا کنید.
