Five months after the project dealing with " Arazel va Obash" ( Rascals and vilains) and the execution (by hanging) of at least 81 people in public places, there are no changes in trial procedure. Some of these alleged accused like Mr. Maysam Lotfi is still under the threat of execution and all the efforth for his release or trial procedure went without answer. At present many of these alleged accused were transfered to Evin prison. By Transfering these alleged accused to the section 209 of the Evin prison the regime is trying to threaten and intimedate the political prisoners who are also in section 209 of Evin prison.

With all the internal and international protest to these wave of public hanging still many of these prisoners are kept in a very bad condition in Suleh-Kahrizak prison in the city of Karaj .Sevaral of these prisoners have signed a blank paper which might be their execution paper.

One of the victim of this project who spent 50 days in Kahrizak and 80 days in Evin prison and was released by a 50 Million Tuman bail ,on speaking with Shahrzad news disclosed of a tragic event which could have created a big commotion if it was the case of political prisoners.
