Cartoon 77: Three Years of House Arrest

February 14, 2014, marked three years since Mehdi Karroubi, Mir Hossein Mousavi, and Zahra Rahnavard were placed under a de facto and illegal house arrest in Tehran.

“It’s astonishing that with all of President Hassan Rouhani’s remarks about citizens’ rights, these three leading political figures are still under house arrest, an absolute injustice and disrespect for citizens’ rights,” said Hadi Ghaemi, executive director of the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran.
