Fars Teachers’ Professional Association, by issuing a statement, expressed concern about the continued detention of two retired teachers, Ali Ahmadi and Jan Mohammad Ahmadi, and called for immediate action regarding their situation and their release.

In the statement, it is said that Ali Ahmadi, a 76-year-old retired teacher from Mamasani, has been in custody since Esfand 15, and after more than 145 days, he is still being held in Shiraz’s Adelabad Prison without any clarification of his status.

According to the association, he had undergone prostate surgery prior to his arrest, and during his detention, due to physical problems, including an eye disease, he needs medical attention.

Fars Teachers’ Professional Association also announced that Jan Mohammad Ahmadi, a 70-year-old retired teacher and a cultural activist, too, despite the passage of 25 days since the time of his arrest, remains in limbo at Noura Abad Prison in Mamasani.
