Iranian Student killed under Torture
Ebrahim Latif Allahi (Persian: ابراهیم لطف اللهی) was killed under torture. He studied law in Paiam Noor University in Sanandaj and was arrested about two weeks ago by the Intelligence. Reportedly, his family has been informed that “he has committed suicide in the prison” but that “his body is already buried”. His family is under pressure to not spread the news [Persian].
This is the leaflet for announcing a service for him, published by his family. It reads “This is to announce the death of Ebrahim Latif Allahi caused by ….”. The cause of death is apparently a taboo.

There is something very wrong here. I can’t believe the bravery of some people. One day, that spirit will rise up and grab the evildoers by the throats.
Typical.
Incredibly brave youths over there, but I think they need combat training. Things are not going to change until the “thugs” are removed, and I don’t think they will go quietly or be reasonable. What is it about “martyrdom” that is so attractive to people in the middle east? To me, this bright young man’s death is so very, very sad!
