lthough a prison physician has said that Abdollah Momeni needs proper medical care outside of prison, he is still being held in jail.

Mr. Momeni is the spokesman for Advar Tahkim Vahdat (Office of Strengthening Unity) and he is suffering from kidney problems. During his detention, Mr. Momeni has also contracted a skin disease and, according to the prison doctor’s recommendation, Mr. Momeni must seek medical care outside of the prison.

Mr. Momeni’s wife made the announcement, saying: “As a result of improper sanitary conditions inside the jail, Mr. Momeni has contracted some form of skin disease, and the prison lacks the proper facilities to treat the disease.”

Mr. Momeni’s wife, Ms. Fatemeh Adinehvand, said her husband’s condition is worrisome, and added: “The treating physician inside the jail has ordered his medical treatment outside of the jail, yet he is being held back.”

Mr. Momeni is chairman of the Iranian Student Organization, and his wife advised Evin Prison authorities regarding her husband’s health and well-being.
