Former Member of Paliament and Disabled War Veteran Arrested

Ali Asghar Hadizadeh is a hero of the Iranian nation who became a paraplegic during the war with Iraq and he was a member of the sixth Iranian Parliament. Unfortunately, NIAC reports that he was arrested during a silent demonstration on July 15 although thankfully he was been released.

He was also a Paralmpics Gold Mentalist in addition to being the head of the Iranian blind team. After his release from prison, he resigned his post in protest of this regime. This is truly disgusting behavoir from the regime to treat a man who served his country like a criminal for wanting freedom.
