NCRI - According to reports from Iranian prisons, the political prisoners Rasoul Razavi, Morteza Morad Pour and Hossein Ali Mohammadi were still on hunger strike on 12 November.
In protest against not being released, political prisoner Rasoul Razavi began his hunger strike on October 4, following which he was sent to exile in Karaj’s Gohardasht Prison.
On his 40th day of hunger strike, Razavi’s family were unaware of this political prisoner’s health conditions.
