Ronak Safarzadeh ,a 21 years old Kurdish ,a women human rights activist and a member of the " Campaign for one million signature" in the city of Sanandaj has been in detention for 13 days by the security agents . Ronak is a Kurdish word meaning light and her mom Shahnaz Ahmadi said: Since her arrest and detention our lives without Ronak is dark and suffocating . At the same time 600 human rights activists signed a statement and demanded for immediate release of Ronak Safarzadeh.
Her mother said: Unfortunately there is no news about her.they dont say anything to us about her . I'm affraid something might have happened to her . Everyday i go to the court ,judiciary and news offices and they only tell us that you go home and she is fine .Going to these three offices is my daily work. We dont know where she is.
I ask all human rights defenders to help find and release her.
