Justice for falsely imprisoned Iranian conservationists

We, the undersigned international community of concerned citizens, hereby petition you to dispense fair justice to eight environmental scientists who have been detained in Iran
In February of 2018, Houman Jowkar, Taher Ghadirian, Sepideh Kashani, Niloufar Bayani, Morad Tahbaz, Amirhossein Khaleghi Hamidi, Sam Radjabi, and Abdolreza Kouhpayeh were arrested in Iran while working on different environmental projects  
To begin with, many considered these arrests to be a mistake that would be rectified once it was made clear that these people were simply performing scientific research. Unfortunately, the situation only got worse as they were accused of spying, actions against national security, and sowing corruption on earth. These serious charges threaten their entire personal and professional lives, and the implications of these allegations also deeply affect the future of a country that is dealing with various environmental crises such as water scarcity, climate change, and biodiversity loss

بیش از یک سال است که محیط بانان و فعالان محیط زیستی با بی عدالتی و بدون ارایه هیچگونه مدرکی از طرف حکومت در بازداشت به سر میبرند. این یازداشت یک بازداشت غیرقانونی و غیر قابل قبول میباشد و این فعالان محیط زیست بایستی فورا آزاد شوند.

این خطر که ممکن است جان آن ها در خطر خودکشی ساختگی یا اعدام بدون دلیل باشد، بسیار بالاست.

در این لحظه وظیفه ماست که با هم متحد علیه این حکومت باشیم.
