The Ahwazi Human Rights Association condemns the arrests of cultural activists in Al-Ahwaz by the Iranian authorities

For two weeks, the Ahwazi citizen has witnessed a fierce attack by the Iranian regime, motivated by "maintaining security" there. There have been many news published on social media and some television channels about widespread arrests among Ahwazis in Al-Ahwaz against the background of "cultural" activities there. The government of Iran saw that cultural activities aim to undermine its national security and considered that these activists who committed a crime should be arrested Introducing their issues and cultural heritage that Iran wants to obliterate under the pretext of breaching its security. From here, the Ahwazi Human Rights Association appeals to the United Nations and human rights organizations to condemn these criminal and arbitrary acts that aim to silence the free and arrogant voices demanding the least possible freedom of expression that Iran has incriminated in its criminal law
