Concerns Grow As Lack of Information on Condition of Mir Hossein Mousavi & Zahra Rahnavard Continues

Concerns Grow As Lack of Information on Condition of Mir Hossein Mousavi & Zahra Rahnavard Continues
Wednesday, February 16, 2011


Wednesday February 16th, 2011- According to reports from Jaras, as of yesterday Tuesday February 15th, 2011 and after Mir Hossein Mousavi published a short statement thanking the noble citizens of Iran for their extensive presence in the February 14th [25 Bahman] rallies [in support of the people of Egypt and Tunisia], Mousavi's residence has been completely surrounded by security officers, and he remains incommunicado. Even his daughters have no news of him and his wife Dr. Zahra Rahnavard. Mr. Mousavi's landlines have been cut off and his security personnel have informed his family that a number of intelligence agents have entered their office and are preventing him from having any communication with the outside world. Mousavi's daughter who attempted to visit with her parents last night witnessed a van at the entrance of their street, making it impossible to enter the street even by foot. Upon complaining to the agents inside the van she was informed that their presence was ordered by Tehran's Prosecutor. The agents have installed antennas around Mousavi's residence making it impossible for mobile phones to have any reception. Despite the fact that 24 hours have passed since Mousavi's house arrest, his close relatives are still unable to contact him. They are not even sure at this time whether Mr. Mousavi and Mrs. Rahnavard are at home, or if they have been transferred to a different location. This lack of information has of course increased concerns about the well being of these two leaders of the Green movement.

Mousavi's daughters made the following statement to Jaras' reporter last night: "We are concerned because we have been left completely in the dark. We are unaware of what is going on behind these closed doors and the unimaginable acts being committed against them. We don't know what has happened to Mousavi and Rahnavard. Who is responsible for their protection? We don't even know if our parents are in the house or if they have been moved to another location."

It is worth mentioning that a few hours ago, after the funeral services of martyr Saneh Jaleh, an organized group was seen moving towards the residence of Mir Hossein Mousavi and Zahra Rahnavard. By announcing Mr. Mousavi's home address, a number of government sites have now laid the foundation for the arrival of other plain clothes agents outside their residence.
