Physical condition of Jailed Dervish rights activists in Adel Abad prison, Saleh Moradi and Kasra Nouri on 60th day of their hunger strike has been reported deteriorated.
According to the doctor, if the hunger strike continues for one more week, will cause Irreversible Effects and serious injuries to the two Dervish prisoners.
According to worried families of these Prisoners of Conscience the condition of these two Gonabadi Dervish Hunger Strikers grows more and more dire. Now they are suffering with vision loss, kidney failure, bowel adhesion in addition to weakness, weight loss and dizziness and the appearance of these symptoms are warning signs of their dire health condition and indicate that they are facing life-threatening health complications!
Based on received reports, being in this situation can lead to permanent loss of vision and even blindness if not medically treated in a timely manner.
These two Gonabadi dervishes who are behind bars for more than 19 months in Shiraz’s Adel Abad prison , lunched the hunger strike to protest illegal transfer of seven Gonabadi dervishes’s lawyers and Majzooban Noor website managers to solitary confinement of Evin prison on 27th of Dey 1391 ( Jan 15, 2013). Saleh Moradi and Kasra Nouri by expressing concern about dir health of all jailed Dervish lawyers especially Hamid Moradi and Mostafa Daneshjou, required prison officials to transfer back them to the general ward of Evin Prison but unfortunately their request has not been answered yet and the detained lawyers of the Gonabadi dervishes are being held in solitary confinement of Ward 209 for more than 2 months.

Saleh Moradi and Kasra Nouri are currently in prison, on charges of “Propaganda against the regime”, “Acting against national security”, “Deviant group (Majzooban Noor) membership” and “Interviews with foreign media, Radio Farda”, but they have not yet received a definitive sentence till now. It seems that, after 18 months, their case is under investigation in Shiraz’s Revolutionary Court.

We note in this regard that although they have been in detention more than the serving a period of time which would equate to their sentence, therefore now their detention is absolutely unlawful.
