Ahmadreza Djalali is an Iranian of 45 years old, married and father of two children. He’s an esteemed physician, a researcher in the field of the medicine of disasters. He worked with CRIMEDIM, research centre in medicine of disasters of the Oriental Piedmont University. Since April 2016, when he was visiting Iran invited by the University, has been arrested and incarcerated in the Evin prison in Teheran. They denied him the right of a lawyer. In December he started a food protest, that make him sick.
Forced to sign a confession with an unknown content, Ahmadreza was sentenced to death with the charge of being a spy for his collaboration with “enemy” countries. The scientific community didn’t accept those accusations and think that the only “fault” could be the collaboration in the course of his scientific activity with researchers from countries considered enemies.
Between the initiatives started to defend the Iranian researcher there is an online petition, and we exhort our readers to sign.
