According to Education Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran September 2, the Iranian regime’s intelligence agents arrested 3 teachers in Tehran and Sanandaj on Monday, August 31. Mehdi Bohlouli and Mohammadreza Nicknejad were arrested during raids on their homes in Tehran with the intelligence agents seizing their personal belongings, including their computers.  Ali Hossein Panahei was arrested in the city of Sanandaj. 3 days prior he had invited people in a speech to resist discrimination and repression by the Iranian regime.
Moreover, Mr. Rasoul Bodaqi, another imprisoned teacher, still remains in detention despite the fact that his 6-year sentence, ended on August 6.
The officials are fabricating new charges of “acting against national security” against him to obstruct his release. Rouhani’s Ministry of Education has expelled Mr. Bodaqi from his job after 20 years of teaching simply because of his stance on the rights of the educators; this directive was conveyed to him while in prison. Ali Akbar Baghbani and Alireza Hashemi are 2 other imprisoned teachers.
ECNCRI added: in circumstances where the totally corrupt Iranian regime is unable to meet the rightful demands of the teachers, in its fright of the reopening of schools and the call by educators for gatherings on the International Teachers Day on October 5, the regime has resorted to these kind of detentions and further repression of teachers.
The Education Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) urges international education agencies and teachers’ unions in various countries to support the demands of Iranian teachers and to protest the repression of Iranian educators and the violation of their basic rights by the theocratic dictatorship.
