On the behalf of the Swedish Green Party Ms. Ceballos ask the Iranian authorities to immediately and unconditionally release Mr. Lisani. Furthermore Mr. Ceballos demands that a detailed account for the legal procedure by the Iranian authorities must be presented since there are concerns that the procedure before the Ardabil Appeal Court may not have provided a genuine review of Mr. Lisani's case.

Statement about Azerbaijani prisoner of conscience in Iran

It is with great concern we have received information about the critical health situation of the Azerbaijani political activist Mr. Abbas Lisani.

Mr. Lisani has been accused by the Iranian government of organizing demonstrations and propagating separatism in the Azeri provinces of Iran.

According to Amnesty International he is a prisoner of conscience, detained solely for the non-violent expression of his opinions,

Mr. Lisani is on hunger strike since January first as a protest against the refusal to grant him short-term leave and for the harassment of his family.

Mr. Lisani was in bad health condition already before he was sent to prison but now after his hunger strike his health condition has gradually worsened.

Amnesty International expresses concern that the procedure before the Ardabil Appeal Court may not have provided a genuine review of Mr. Lisani's case. A detailed
account for the legal procedure by the Iranian authorities must be presented.

We, the Swedish Green Party, ask the Iranian authorities to immediately and unconditionally release Mr. Lisani and make sure he receives proper medical treatment for his injuries.
