Hossein Ronaghi Maleki, jailed Iranian blogger has been reportedly beaten by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards in prison.
Zoleykha Mousavi, mother of Ronaghi Maleki told Campaign for Human Rights in Iran yesterday: “Today they called us from Prison and told us that an intelligence officer of the Guards has beaten our son in a meeting. We were told that he had passed out and after some hours, he had been transferred to Taleghani Hospital.”
Mousavi speculated that the jailed blogger was beaten for having written a letter to Tehran Prosecutor, Abbas Jafari Dowlatabadi to complain about the judiciary’s indifference to his physical condition and refusing to grant him leave to get treatment outside prison.
