Hamed Rouhinejad and Ahmad Karimi, two Iranian political prisoners were taken to Zanjan and Gonbad Qaboos prisons to serve out their prison terms in exile, Herana reports.

The two detainees were reportedly transferred from Evin Prison last night without any former notification to their lawyers.

Hamed Rouhinejad, a philosophy student, was arrested last May charged with membership in a dissident group.

He suffers from Multiple Sclerosis and is already experiencing paralysis in parts of his body. However, the authorities refuse to grant him sick leave.

Rouhinejad was sentenced to death in the controversial mass trials of post-election crackdown on political activists last summer.
