Iran: Political prisoners in Gohardasht Prison commemorate memory of Ali Saremi

NCRI- Political prisoners in Gohardasht prison in the city of Karaj held a ceremony on Friday to honor the memory of Ali Saremi, the most prominent political prisoner in Iran and a member of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), executed in Tehran’s Evin Prison on December 28, 2010.

Mr. Saremi, 63, had spent a total of 24 years in the prisons of the Shah’s regime and under the mullahs’ rule in Iran. 

He was arrested for the last time in September 2007 during a ceremony marking the anniversary of the 1988 massacre of political prisoners in Iran in which he played an active role to organize.
