NUCLEAR TALKS
Iran Threatens Delays in Nuclear Talks
Iran raised the possibility on Wednesday of delaying or canceling the resumption of nuclear talks with the big powers, scheduled in less than two weeks, because of what it called dithering by the other side in holding preliminary meetings aimed at ensuring some success.
Iran spars with West before nuclear talks
Iran questioned world powers’ readiness for negotiations over its disputed nuclear program and accused the U.N. watchdog on Wednesday of behaving like a Western-manipulated intelligence agency, keeping up its sparring ahead of talks in Moscow.
Nuclear body calls on Iran to sign deal over Tehran’s atomic drive
The U.N. nuclear watchdog and Iran have agreed to hold talks in Vienna on Friday, IAEA chief Yukiya Amano said Monday, calling on Tehran to sign a deal clarifying issues over its atomic drive. “A meeting between Iran and the agency has been scheduled for 8 June in Vienna,” Amano told the International Atomic Energy Agency’s 35-member board of governors at the start of a week-long meeting.

Rights group exposes discrimination against Afghans in Iran
Justice for Iran has sent a comprehensive report on the violation of the rights of Afghans residing in Iran to Ahmad Shaheed, the UN rapporteur on human rights in Iran.
In the report entitled “Iran: An Afghan Free Zone”, Shaheed is called upon to force the Islamic Republic government to end its campaign of discrimination against Afghani refugees in Iran.
The report adds that the Iranian government’s campaign against Afghans residing in Iran is being fomented with the cooperation of the United Nations Human Rights Commission for refugee affairs and in many case with the approval or silence of the Afghani government.
While the political and security situation in Afghanistan remains unfavourable, the Iranian government has announced that single Afghani men residing in Tehran, Khorasan Razavi and Esfahan must leave the country by the end of the month, the report writes.
The report also cites the various reports of discrimination against Afghans in Iran that have been circulating in the media in recent months, including the banning of Afghans from entering public parks and from living in most Iranian provinces.
Justice for Iran adds that Afghans residing in Iran are already excluded from many basic rights to health, employment and education and, since 2004, there have been many restrictions on their right to travel within Iran. Currently, 16 Iranian provinces are completely off limits to Afghans, according to a recent directive by the government.
The rights groups goes on to add that more than 5,000 Afghani residents of Khuzestan Province have been moved from their place of residence to a camp, which was used as a POW camp for 1,500 prisoners during the Iran-Iraq War.
The report adds that mixed marriages between Iranian women and Afghani men have not been exempted from these measures. The Iranian government does not recognize marriages between Iranian women and Afghani men, and their children do not automatically receive Iranian citizenship and citizen rights.
Marriages between Iranian men and foreign nationals are recognized by the Islamic Republic, and their children are automatically regarded as Iranian citizens.
Justice for Iran also points out that the Human Rights Commission is failing in its mission in Iran because, while it does not recognize Afghans who seek asylum in Iran for economic reasons and refuses to lend them any support, the commission actually assists the Islamic Republic government by handing refugees over to the Iranian government, even as it receives funds for a million registered Afghani nationals living in Iran.
Justice for Iran asks Ahmad Shaheed to “urge both the Iranian government and the UNHCR to make their entire plans clear and abandon their inhumane policy towards Afghans.”

Prisoner dies in Rejai Shahr Prison
An Iranian-Kurdish political prisoner died last night in Rejai Shahr Prison in Karaj, human rights groups report.
According to the Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA), Mohammad Mehdi Zalieh Naghshbandian had been transferred to hospital earlier this month for serious health complications.
The prisoner, who was reportedly a victim of chemical warfare during the Iran-Iraq War, was transferred to Rejai Shahr Prison after 18 years in Oroumiyeh Prison.
He had been charged with cooperation with a Kurdish political group and sentenced to life imprisonment.
Zalieh Naghshbandian had contracted lung disease as a result of his previous exposure to chemical gases and the lack of treatment in prison. He was held without any regard for his condition in Rejai Shahr Prison until two weeks ago, when his critical health problems forced the authorities to hospitalize him.
On May 21, Mansour Radpour, another political prisoner in Rejai Shahr Prison, died following a stroke. He was also suffering from several ailments before the onset of the stroke, and his medical needs had been ignored by the prison authorities.
Currently, several political prisoners, including human rights activists Nargess Mohammadi and Mohammad Seddigh Kaboodvand and blogger Hossein Ronaghi Maleki, are in immediate need of medical attention, and several human rights groups, including Iran’s Nobel Peace laureate, have spoken out about their critical situations, urging the government to release the ailing prisoners without delay.
Iran Standard Time | Friday Kind of Crimes
by CORRESPONDENT
Morality plays under Tehran’s famous (dying) sycamore trees.I like Friday mornings in Tehran. The streets are quiet. The sky, finally free from the weekday pollution, tends toward blue. One can surrender to that peaceful feeling that inspires happy thoughts. Usually, I go for a walk along Vali Asr Street, where the sycamore trees are somehow both friendly and majestic. Others go for a jog or have an early breakfast.
One Friday morning, I am strolling along thus, enjoying the rare serenity, thinking what a wonderful city this can be at times. Suddenly, the loud screech of braking tires interrupts my reverie.
The car is a white Peugeot 206, a small four-door hatchback. A woman is on the ground in front of it. It is hard to see her face. She is wearing pants and a jacket, a yellow shawl wrapped around her head. She jumps to her feet, screaming at the driver. He emerges from the Peugeot, a man of medium height in a black T-shirt and blue jeans, and hits her. She runs, and he chases her around the car. Catching up, he grabs her and tries to push her inside the vehicle. The thought occurs to me that he is kidnapping her. An abduction is happening right in front of me!
Passersby who had been watching the scene motionlessly now move toward the car. The woman is screaming hysterically, “Let me go! You animal! Let me go!!” Another Peugeot 206, this one blue, rolls onto the scene. It stops so as to block the abductor from getting into his car. A muscular man in his late 20s gets out of the blue Peugeot, his biceps rippling beneath his tight T-shirt. He is twice the size of the first driver, whom he grabs and strikes. “You call yourself a man, you asshole,” he shouts. It seems a hero has arrived to save the woman in the yellow shawl.

Imprisoned Iranian Baha’i Refused Medical Leave After Surgery
Source: International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran
66-year old Riaz Sobhani, currently in prison for financially assisting the Baha’i Institute of Higher Education (BIHE), was refused medical leave after his recent heart surgery. His son, Naim Sobhani, told the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran that his father was transferred to the hospital for his surgery in chains.
Naim Sobhani told the Campaign that two days after his surgery, his father was transferred back to Rajaee Shahr prison on 27 May, after being denied medical furlough.
In June 2011 authorities arrested Riaz Sobhani and on 30 September 2011 Judge Moghisseh of Branch 28 of Tehran’s Revolutionary Court sentenced him to four years in prison for providing financial assistance to BIHE. An appeals court upheld his sentence.
Sobhani’s son described his father’s experience in the hospital: “They transferred a sick 66-year-old man to the hospital with chains on his hands and feet. Three agents are watching him in the hospital around the clock and the family were only able to see my father a few times after imploring and begging the guards.”
On 13 May, authorities transferred Sobhani to prison because of his deteriorating medical condition. “My father’s left hand has lost all feeling, his hearing is impaired, and he has chronic coughing. These are symptoms he has developed over the past year in prison,’ said Naim Sobhani. “He previously had heart, vision, and stomach problems which were exacerbated by the poor hygienic and nutrition conditions in prison. We had asked the authorities twice to transfer him to a hospital, but they refused. But on 13 May his condition deteriorated to the point where they had to transfer him to a hospital. Prison staff called my mother and told her they had transferred him to the hospital and my family went there immediately.”
Riaz Sobhani was a key member of the Baha’i Assembly in Tehran prior to its closure in 2008 when seven Baha’i community leaders were arrested and later each sentenced to 10 years, later to 20 years, in prison. Riaz Sobhani’s first lawyer, Abdolfattah Soltani, is currently in prison.
Mahsa and Masoud: ‘Til Prison Do Us Part

Masoud Bastani, a journalist for reformist newspapers, was arrested on 5 July 2009 in the aftermath of the presidential election. He was arrested when he appeared at the Revolutionary Court to follow up on his wife’s charges. He is currently serving his six-year prison sentence in Rajaee Shahr prison in Karaj.
Mahsa Amrabadi, fellow journalist and wife of Bastani, began serving her one-year prison sentence on 9 May 2012 on the charge of “propagating against the regime through interviews and reports.” Despite prison transfer requests by the family, Amrabadi is detained in Evin Prison, unable to visit her husband
Iran: Prisoners warn about possible death of blogger
Source: Radio Zamaneh
A letter from 117 Iranian political prisoners being held in Section 350 of Evin Prison warns authorities about the critical health of jailed blogger Hossein Ronaghi Maleki, who has lost one kidney and is on a hunger strike to fight for sick leave from prison.

The Kaleme website reports that the prisoners’ letter refers to another political prisoner, Hoda Saber, who died in prison during his hunger strike, and they urge the authorities stop a similar situation from befalling another prisoner.
The letter points out that, according to Article 291 of the penal code, if a sentence leads to the prisoners illness or halts his recovery from an ailment, a coroner and trusted physician outside the prison can be charged with treating the prisoner.
The signatories add that the coroner has already issued a letter attesting to Ronaghi Maleki’s inability to endure his sentence, and his physician has clarified that he must be hospitalized outside of the prison in order to get adequate treatment.
Ronaghi Maleki was arrested in December of 2009 for a blog he wrote under the name of Babak Khorramdin.
During the crackdown on protests against the 2009 presidential election results, numerous journalists and bloggers as well as social and political activists were arrested.
Ronaghi Maleki has reportedly sustained severe kidney injury in prison and has already received a kidney transplant. The lack of adequate follow-ups has apparently caused further kidney complications, and he is now on hunger strike, demanding to be released in order to receive the necessary medical treatments.

Iranian opposition leader Mehdi Karrubi met with his family on June 4 for three hours, according to his son, who wrote about the visit on his Facebook page.

Mohammad Hossein Karrubi also posted a picture of the visit, the first photograph of his father that has been seen in months. He wrote that his father, who has been under arrest for more than a year, was brought to the family house in Jamaran.
He did not provide any further details.
The opposition website “Sahamnews” reports that Karrubi is now being held, not at home, but in “a building” under the watchful gaze of security agents.
Fellow opposition leader Mir Hossein Musavi and his wife, Zahra Rahnavard, have also reportedly been under house arrest for some 450 days.
The opposition figures were put under house arrest after their February 2010 call for a rally in support of the uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt attracted tens of thousands of protesters.

Transit of Venus across the Sun
Photos by Fatemeh Behboudi & Hossein Esmaeili,
People in Tehran and other towns across Iran observed the rare phenomena of transit of Venus across Sun on Wednesday morning.
Tehran, Iran: Photo by Fatemeh Behboudi
A transit of Venus across the Sun takes place when the planet Venus passes directly between the Sun and Earth, becoming visible against the solar disk. During a transit, Venus can be seen from Earth as a small black disk moving across the face of the Sun.

A transit is similar to a solar eclipse by the Moon. While the diameter of Venus is more than 3 times that of the Moon, Venus appears smaller, and travels more slowly across the face of the Sun, because it is much farther away from Earth. The transit of 2012 lasted 6 hours and 40 minutes.
Transits of Venus are among the rarest of predictable astronomical phenomena. They occur in a pattern that repeats every 243 years, with pairs of transits eight years apart separated by long gaps of 121.5 years and 105.5 years. The periodicity is a reflection of the fact that the orbital periods of Earth and Venus are close to 8:13 and 243:395 commensurabilities. (read more on wikipedia)
