Mrs. Zohreh Nikaeen (Tebyanian) is also serving her 23 months sentence in prison in Semnan, Iran with her 11 months son, Resam Tebyanian. Her sole "crime" is the peaceful practice of her Baha'i faith, which is viciously peresecuted under the Islamic Republic regime.
At this time her baby is known to be ill and need monthly check-up. For example Zohreh’s son, Resam, has a ear infections and needs urgent care.
Mrs. Nikaeen is one of at least three women imprisoned in Semnan solely for their Baha'i faith who are currently locked up together with their infants in the terrible Semnan prison. All together, there are known to be seven infants locked up with their mothers in that prison. THESE BABIES ARE ALL KNOWN TO BE SUFFERING FROM MEDICAL NEGLECT.
We, the undersigned, demand that the international community take immediate action to bring all possible pressure to bear upon the Islamic Republic of Iran to IMMEDIATELY and UNCONDITONALLY release Mrs. Zohreh Nikaeen (Tebyanian) and her infant son Resam from Semnan prison.
As a political prisoner imprisoned solely for her Baha'i faith, not only is Mrs. Nikaeen's imprisonment illegal under both international law and the Iranian constitution, but the suffering being endured by both mother and infant is a moral outrage which cannot be tolerated.
