Shahnaz
Akmali's family went to court to submit a financial bail for her
release today morning, but they have been told that there's no verdict
issued for her release on bail, and she will be kept in jail.
The
security agents have provided Shahnaz's family with repeated misleading
information and made them perplexed and worry since her arrest. Such a
scheme undertaken by the regime thugs has inflicted substantial pressure
upon her desperate family.
This
is only one of the numerous cases exercised by the regime thugs in
order to impose pressure on the detainees and their families as a
punishment to silence them into more silence. The regime practices many
intimidating procedures against several imprisoned activists for years.
There's also another doubt over her transfer to hospital that officials told the family, says HRANA.
Shahnaz Akmali was allegedly transferred to hospital on Wednesday night for a few hours, according to the news.
However,
in a phone call from Evin prison on Thursday, Shahnaz, who was arrested
by security forces on Wednesday morning, notified her relatives that
authorities have agreed to release her on bail estimated to be a $25,000
USD. The family was told that they should submit the demanded bail on
Saturday, January 28, 2017, according to the news.
Shahnaz
Akmali told her family that authorities has currently locked up her in
Ward 209 of Tehran notorious prison, confirms HRANA.
Shahnaz
Akmali, the mother of Moustafa Karimbeigi, a 26-year-old peaceful
street protester who was shot and killed in Iran during the 2009 Ashura
uprising, was reportedly arrested at her work place on the morning of
Wednesday January 25.
According
to sources close to the Karimbeigi family, Iranian regime authorities
took Ms. Akmali to her house and confiscated all of Shahnaz's personal
belongings. The HRANA news agency reported that at least five regime
agents were involved in Shahnaz's arrest and transfer to an unknown
location.
In this regard, Iranian activists have started #FreeOurMom to draw attention to the unlawful detention of Shahnaz Akmali, a brave & peaceful mother.
Iranian activists are deeply concerned about Shahnaz's situation and are calling on the international community to take action.
She
is currently kept in cells of Ward 209 along with a few of inmates at
Evin prison in Tehran. Ward 209 is a solitary confinement ward run by
the regime's Ministry of Intelligence. Although ward 209 is inside Evin,
it operates outside prison jurisdiction. Ward 209 is in the complete
control of the Ministry of Intelligence, and they have immunity to do as
they please.
In
addition, Since the death her son, Shahnaz and her family have faced
repeated threats by Iranian authorities and are under constant pressure
and surveilance.
