A Glimmer of Light in the Dark
Wednesday 28 Oct 09
Precisely at a time when the eye can see nothing, a light shines in darkness. Precisely in the moments that many prisoners of recent weeks are subjected to torture to make confessions, a prosecutor in the judiciary has courageously broken the silence and spoken about illegal methods for extracting confession through pressure. Precisely at the time when Sohrab Arabi has lost his life under barbaric circumstances in Evin Prison (and under the supervision of the judiciary), and his dear body is turned over to the Iranian nation without any explanation, a prosecutor has decided to implicitly expose the unlawful nature of what is taking place. With his timely action in such critical times, he has restored the dignity of the prosecutors and judges which has been severely tarnished in recent years.
