HRANA News Agency – Mohsen Kashefzadeh Saraie, a Green Movement activist, has disappeared during the past few days. Since the Ministry of Intelligence summoned him over the phone several days ago, it is likely that he has been arrested.
According to a report by Tahavol Sabz Web Site, Mohsen Kashefzadeh Saraie was summoned by intelligence agents a few days ago. After leaving his house on Wednesday, June 29, 2011, he has not returned home, and his family has not heard from him.
It has been reported that since 2009 presidential elections, Mohsen Kashefzadeh Saraie has been repeatedly threatened by officers working for Iran’s Intelligence Agency, but because he has not engaged in any illegal activities, they have been unable to obtain a warrant for his arrest. However, two days after being summoned to the Ministry of Intelligence office located at Sayyed Khandan district, he has not returned home. Meanwhile, his family members are extremely worried about him and fear for safety.
Although Mohsen Kashefzadeh Saraie’s family members have contacted the police and the Iranian Intelligence Agency in order to locate him, security officials refuse to provide any information to the family and claim to have no news of him to share with his parents.
Since Mohsen Kashefzadeh Saraie was summoned by intelligence officers two days prior to his disappearance, it is safe to assume that he has been kidnapped by the Iranian Intelligence Agency.
In recent days, Mohammad Zarei, a student activist, was also arrested. Mohammad Zarei studies Applied Chemistry at Semnan University and is a member of the Islamic Association of Students.
