To : Special reporter of U. N. in freedom of speech

Dear Mr., Ligabo,
Your pre-scheduled visit to Iran on July 17, 03 was called off by the Iranian Regime while a new wave of suppression was ordered against peaceful pro democracy protests. The religious dictatorship arrested more than hundreds of students, Political activists, journalists and any one who was willing to practice basic Human Rights and freedom of speech. They went under tremendous torture (physical and psychological) such as being confined in isolation cells for long periods of time, to confess crimes they have never committed, particularly before TV cameras.
The arrest of Ms. Kazemi as a spy, her torture in the prison to confess and caused her death, is just a count of countless crimes in the prison system of the regime. Ms. Kazemi's case shows the understanding of the Regime's judiciary of Human rights.
We would like to bring to your attention some of the many systematic Violations of Human rights in Iran:
We have registered about 810 cases of violation of human Rights in Iran in the first 10 months of 2003. Almost three cases every single day.(The report in detail will be delivered to Your office in Geneva In person by delegates of our groups).
The report proves that the regime uses many dirty tactics, such as suspending students for sometime from studying, assaults, insults, threats , suppressions, tortures and execution to try to prevent individuals from using their basic human rights .
We, Iranian Human Rights groups in Europe, Canada and U.S.A, request you to diagnose the tactics and announce the violence, discrimination and …by the regime against those individuals who are willing to express themselves but are denied and are restricted, in order to improve human Rights in Iran and to help and heel the wounds of the victims in this state of violence against them.
A list of political prisoners is attached.
Please consider:
1. The list is not completed due to a lack of freedom of information in Iran and the limitation of our access to the victims and sources.
2. Many of the students who have been detained since June 2003 are still waiting to stand before a security court. They are denied bail and are denied free access to lawyers and visits from their families.
3. There is a possibility that some of the prisoners will be transferred to an unofficial jail in order to prevent them to have access to you freely.

Obstacles for the three independent observers
to get an entry visa to Iran for the trial of ms. Kazemi

Three independent Canadian observers who are going to attend the trial of Ms. kazemi in Tehran who is supposed to be held on Nov 15, have not received their entry visas from the Iranian embassy in Ottawa, yet.
Mr. Gaston Labrèche, Mr. Pierre Poupart and Mrs. Tanya Churchmuch are respectively representatives of international and Canadian human rights, journalists, and social N.G.O s who are demanding a full independent inquiry for the cause of the murder of Ms. Kazemi his son.
One of the observer has applied on Oct. 3, 03 but has not received any response from the embassy.
This delay tactic is another proof that the Iranian regime is not willing to cooperate with international communities and organizations to find out the truth.
The obstruction of the authorities for the entry visas and considering systematic and organized Human Rights abuses in Iran, leads to the conclusion that the leadership of the regime was at the center of the plot from the beginning of this case, that started with her arrest for allegations of espionage to her murder.
We, Iranian Human right groups in Canada, EU and U.S. join the voices of the world and Canadian in particular for the justice of Ms. Kazemi. The justice of ms, kazemi will go through an independent inquiry to find the truth out surrounding the case and the return of the body to Canada as her son, Stephane Hachemi, wishes.
