Campaign Launched for Mehrnoushe Solouki
June 15th, 2007We have been informed of an online campaign on behalf of Mehrnoushe Solouki, a French-Iranian filmmaker who has been prevented from leaving Iran. According to the Free Solouki website,
Mehrnoushe Solouki is an independant filmmaker with dual citizenship (France and Iran) and a resident of Canada, where she is pursuing her PhD. She was arrested in Tehran on 19 February 2007, detained in unacceptable conditions at the Evin prison for a month, then released on 20 March 2007. The authorities have confiscated her video camera, her computer and her video cassettes. The government of Iran accuses her “endangering national security” and are preventing her from leaving Iran.
Please go and sign the petition on her behalf. The Free Kian Campaign supports the release of all those wrongly detained by the Iranian authorities.
