Free Doctors Arash and Kamiar Alaie

Arash and Kamiar Alaei are Iranian physicians whose lives and activities have been dedicated to honoring Iran.  Arash and Kamiar are experts on HIV/AIDS and have worked for many years on HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment activities in Iran and internationally.  

They have been detained by the Iranian government with no explanation since June.  We, people of faith and conscience, are looking forward to seeing Arash and Kamiar back with us as soon as possible. 

Physicians for Human Rights has created a petition calling for their release.  Please click here to read and sign the petition now.

The US administration has designated a budget of $80 million for “promoting democracy in Iran.”  This represents direct interference in Iranian internal affairs.  These kinds of policies put people’s lives in danger as well.  In this case, Arash and Kamiar Alaie, who are not affiliated with any political group or activities, have been arrested because of the illegal policies toward Iran by the United States government. 

At this time of tension, and when Iran is pursuing its rights to peaceful uses of nuclear power, or at any time, it is not right or helpful for it to engage in violating human rights domestically.  We are hopeful to see this violation solved immediately.
