Cartoon 129: For Imprisoned Cartoonist Hadi Heidari

Security forces arrested the prominent Iranian cartoonist Hadi Heidari in his office at Shahrvand Daily in Tehran today, November 16, 2015. Two co-workers of Heidari at the Tehran daily confirmed the arrest and told the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran that “a young man came with a warrant. He showed Hadi the warrant and they took him quietly.” This is cartoonist Touka Neyestani’s take on his fellow cartoonist’s imprisonment.
