This is in protest at the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold their death sentences.

They are also protesting against their treatment in prison, including torture and other ill-treatment, and the authorities’ refusal to allow them medical care.

The men were arrested in early 2011 and sentenced to death on 7 July 2012 after being convicted of vaguely worded national security “offences” including “enmity against God and corruption on earth”, "gathering and colluding against state security”, and “spreading propaganda against the system” following an unfair trial.

Send an appeal on behalf of the five men to:

Head of the Judiciary, Ayatollah Sadegh Larijani
