On
the morning of 19 June 1982, we had just eaten breakfast in the IRGC prison in
the northern city of Lahijan. We tried sat in the corner of our cell in order
to read a book. There were nine of us and were confined in a 16 meter squared
cell. We were all political prisoners and opposed the religious regime in Iran
for the crimes it had carried out against youths and freedom-loving
individuals. Suddenly, the cell door that was locked with a heavy chain opened.
The guard looked at us and said: Mohammad and Abdullah Samizadeh, come out!
Mohaammad and Abdullah were brothers; both stepped out of the cell after a moment.
I was a bit surprised; why did they take Mohammad and Abdullah at 7 in the
morning I thought to myself. We became worried.
