http://www.rezapahlavi.org/hunger60805-f.html
FAIRFAX, Va., June 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Reza Pahlavi of Iran, in response to
a direct invitation by political prisoners in Iran, pledged his solidarity and
announced his plans to go on a three day hunger strike starting Friday, June
10.
"Solidarity with political prisoners of Iran and support for the
legitimate quest for freedom, human rights and economic opportunity in Iran
transcends all political boundaries and ideologies," said Reza Pahlavi,
opposition leader to the clerical regime of Iran.
Yesterday, in a communique, signed by numerous political prisoners, in
Iran, the June 17 presidential elections were rejected as "sham and
undemocratic." Calling for a boycott of the elections, the communique also
cited the regimes abhorrent violations of human rights in Iran and announced
the collective plan of the prisoners to go on a hunger strike as an act of
nonviolent defiance of the regime.
Thanking you for your attention.
Haideh Tavackoli (Ms)
