The Martyrdom of Mohsen Roh Allamini

A picture of Mohsen Roh Allamini who was killed in prison after being arrested during the protests. He is the son of Dr. Abdullah Hussein Roh Allamini Najafabadi.

Dr. Najafabadi was a senior adviser to the Presidential campaign of Mohsen Rezai. Rezai was a former head of the Republican Guard and the leading conservative alternative to Ahmadinejad in the recent elections. Dr. Najafabadi was also the head of the Pastor Institute, which is the Iranian equivalent to the CDC, during Ahmadinejad’s first term.

Dr. Najafabadi's son Mohsen Roh Allamini was martyred in prison after he was arrested in the July 9 protests to mark the 1999 student protests. He was in his 20s and was a computer science engineer.

If the son of such a prominent Iranian who was part of the regime can be killed, then those in power must really be desperate to crush the will of the Iranian people. My thoughts go to his family and his death will not be in vain.
