Hamed Omidi, a student activist detained in ward 209 of Evin prison, has protested against last week’s execution of his Kurdish prison mates. Omidi’s disobedience of orders given by prison officials led to a physical altercation.
According to reports inside the prison received over the phone, security guards beat Omidi with batons and dragged him on the floor to a cell in solitary confinement. As of yet, he has not been transferred back to ward 209.
It is worth mentioning that Hamed Omidi, a student at Allameh Tabatabai University in Tehran, was arrested in relation to protests at Tehran University that condemned the execution of Ehsan Fattahian. Officials have refused to release Omidi from prison, even if a bail bonds is secured.
