According to a recent report from Tehran to the
Human Rights and Democracy Activists in Iran, secular cleric, Mr. Kazemeini
Boroujerdi, opposition liberal leader and prisoner of conscience, was
transferred to solitary confinement on May 18, 2013.
Mr. Boroujerdi, opposed to Velayat-faqih,
recently released a message urging a boycott of the presidential
elections. The message was widely disseminated throughout various media
outlets and other interested groups.
Security forces in Evin prison entered the
special ward for clergy and forced Mr Boroujerdi to gather his personal
belongings in preparation for transfer to solitary confinement at the prison.
There is no additional information regarding his condition at this time. The
cleric has had no contact with anyone outside of the prison since 4:00 pm
(Tehran time) May 18, and his family is completely unaware of his fate.
In his published
statement on April 2013 , Mr. Boroujerdi stated that the election
is a means to make a mockery of the Iranian people. He said:
Every four years, they organize a counterfeit
election and prop up candidates who will do their further bidding by repeating
the same lies, in order to guarantee another few years of the criminal rule.
They make a mockery of the citizens who wish to participate in a lawful and
constitutional process and who wish to have their voices heard as the veritable
partners of this country, but who are nothing more than objects of control and
playthings by the illegal regime.
Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, has appointed Two
of his followers to enforce the suppression of libertarian clergymen and
enforce repressive commands against humanity. they named Mohammad
Jafar Mmontazeri as the head of the Special Court for the Clergy in Iran, and
Ebrahim Raeisi as Prosecutor of the Special Court for the Clergy
and the Commission member in the massacre of political prisoners in 1367.

prison. They also requested from The High Commissioner for Human Rights,
and from other international authorities, urgent action to immediately end all
acts harassment, and extend unconditional freedom to Mr. Boroujerdi.
