Political prisoner Ehsan Houshmand is under intense pressure to give a false confession to match the interrogator’s scenario.

Per reports by the National-Religious site, this independent researcher who holds a nationalistic position on ethnic issues in Iran, has been arrested twice in the past year.

In the few visits this National-Religious activist has had with his family, they are much concerned by the condition of his health.

Houshmand, a senior sociology expert, has been incarcerated since January 7, 2012 under intense pressure by the interrogators to make a false confession.

So far, many different political movements have asked for the release of this researcher.
