Iran: Bahareh Hedayat is a student activist and women’s rights advocate who has been unjustly imprisoned - ONLINE PETITION

 Petition sponsored by Amin Ahmadian and United for Iran

Dec 7, 2015 — Hello Everyone,

My Bahareh Hedayat is a student activist and women’s rights advocate who has been unjustly imprisoned by the Iranian government since 2009. Last week, I saw Bahareh for the first time in a year. She wrote this poem in my hand:

How long should I seek you
without finding you.
How long should I smell your scent
without having you.
-Your Bahareh

Bahareh now knows that more than 100,000 of you around the world have asked Iranian authorities to end her illegal imprisonment. Your support is a powerful signal that the world is watching what happens to Bahareh. We are hopeful that if more people sign this petition she will receive better treatment and may be released.

Please take a moment to share her petition on Twitter and Facebook today.
