ما در جای درست تاریخ ایستاده ایم / دلنوشته گلرخ ایرایی برای زینب جلالیان
partly translated by FreedomMessenger
Political prisoner Golrokh Ebrahimi Iraee wrote a letter to Zeinab Jalalian on the eleventh year of her imprisonment and reiterated on the certainty of her freedom. She wrote in her letter,
“I start the spring thinking of the 11th spring you are behind the bars. And I think of your endurance, of your lengthy solitary confinements, and psychological and physical torture you underwent and endured…. I think of your beautiful eyes which remain untreated… You are the symbol of a generation that still breathes and is still alive despite repression and suppression…
“Let them take away our children from our bosoms (like they did to Maryam Akbari Monfared)… Let them raid our homes…
“We are standing on the right side of the history. Dear Zeinab, even if they distort our image… tomorrow is ours and tomorrow is going to be a better day.”

” … Zaynab Jalalian has been transferred from women’s ward of Kermanshah prison to central prison of Khoy almost two months ago. Khoy prison does not have special ward for political prisoners. … has contact with her lawyers (Dr. Mohammad Sharif and Amir Salar Davoodi) regularly. … ”
انتقال زینب جلالیان به زندان خوی
from her lawyer’s [Amirsalar Davoodi] FB page:
زینب جلالیان چندی است (حدود دوماه قبل) که از زندان دیزل آباد به زندان مرکزی خوی منتقل شده است.
البته زینب همچنان از بیماری ناخونک (بیماری چشمی) رنج می برد, لیکن بینایی اش بر قرار است. شایعه نابینایی زینب را تکذیب می کنیم.
زینب در زندان مرکزی خوی که فاقد بند سیاسی است, امکان ملاقات خانواده اش را یافته است.
پیش از این فاصله زیاد محل نگهداری زینب تا محل اقامت خانواده اش, به صورت قابل توجهی امکان ملاقات او و خانواده را با سختی همراه ساخته بود.
زینب شرایط عمومی مناسبی دارد و مرتبا با وکلای خود (دکتر محمد شریف و امیرسالار داودی) در تماس است.
گفتنی است تاکنون چندین بار ملاقات حضوری هم در محل زندان دیزل آباد ما بین ما وکلای زینب و او برقرار گردیده است.

“Zeynab Jalalian is suffering great pain in her kidney and her condition is critical. Prison’s authorities also do not act for her treatment.” One of her relatives told HRANA.
Her eyes also need treatment and she is losing her sight and it is being ignored for a long time.”

زینب جلالیان در خطر نابینایی
*****
25 May 2014 – Arash Nezamı was informed that Zeynab Jalalian suffers from Pterygium, an eye disease [ ‘Symptoms of pterygium include persistent redness from inflammation, foreign body sensation, tearing, which can cause bleeding, dry and itchy eyes. In advanced cases the pterygium can affect vision as it invades the cornea with the potential of obscuring the optical center of the cornea and inducing astigmatism and corneal scarring,which usually requires surgery. ‘ ]; the Prosecutor’s Office is reportedly denying Zeynab the right to undergo surgery on her eye. The condition is weakening her vision and making her see blurry. An alternative to surgery (since the prosecutor won’t allow her!) is to reportedly use sterile eye drops for a long period of time. [ ‘Some of the irritating symptoms can be addressed with artificial tears. However, no reliable medical treatment exists to reduce or even prevent pterygium progression. Definitive treatment is achieved only by surgical removal. Long-term follow up is required as pterygium may recur even after complete surgical correction.’ ] The prosecutor has reportedly provided no explanation as to why he is rejecting Zeynab’s right to seek the proper medical treatment. However, the report states that Zeynab has been locked up for the past seven years now [without one single day of furlough! ] and has endured severe psychological and physical abuse. The Ministry of Intelligence have reportedly placed much pressure on her this whole time to provide them with false confessions.
