Hunger strike: Political Prisoners Statement

Political Prisoners Statement

We, the political prisoners, are going to start a hunger strike on June 10th.
Our reasons and demands:
In protest of the exhibited, conditioned and undemocratic presidential elections in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
In protest of humanrights violations by the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Freedom of expression and publication of one's opinion.
An unrestricted and unconditioned release of all the political and idiological prisoners.
We invite every freedom-lover, specially the students, to protest against this exhibited elections and show support for the political prisoners hungerstrike, by holding the Persian 3 coloured flag and flowers with the colours of the flag (green, white and red).

And once again we invite every persian to participate in this urban protest by boycotting the elections, by their civil disobedients, by working less and by participating in peaceful protest meetings.

We suggest to make June 17th (=election day) the "National hunger strike" day.
We request all members of independent press and media to support this movement from June 10th until July 9th.
