Iran: political prisoner goes on hunger strike

Ali Reza Rasouli 
Political prisoner Ali Reza Rasouli has gone on hunger strike since May 30th, protesting lack of medical treatment in Mahabad Prison. He is suffering from cancer and is enduring excruciating pain. This political prisoner can hardly sleep, sit, walk or undergo other normal activities. It’s been months since he, despite all the hollow promises, has been deprived of medical care. He has been suffering from a kidney problem for a couple of days. In this regard he went to the prison clinic but they have deprived him of any serious treatment.
Rasouli had twice gone on hunger strike before, protesting lack of treatment for his cancer.
