Farid Sayahi a poet and cultural activist from Abadan has been arrested on 22 of May.
The Iranian authorities neither presented arrest warrant nor informed the detainee or his family of the reason behind his arrest.
A week has passed and Farid is still being held incommunicado without access to lawyer and his family which amounts the fears of being tortured and finally led to enforced disappearance.
Iran has an appalling record of persecuting and arbitrary arrest members of the Ahwazi minority.
Despite the international calls , Iran however demonstrates no interest in modifying its discrimination policies against the Ahwazi Ethnic minority.
International reports including Amnesty report published 2nd May, 2018 show the arrests of the Ahwazi Ethnic minority are continuing on almost daily basis.
