Iranian Jewish teen Convicted – denied a fair trial https://lionpuppyheart.wordpress.com/2009/11/15/yaghoghil-shaolian-detained-in-iranian-prison-accused-of-espionage/ Yaghoghil Shaolian, 19, a member of Iran’s Jewish community, which numbers about 25,000 people, was not an activist, and did not join the protests. He was caught up in the moment and threw some stones at a Tehran bank branch, in central Tehran on June 14, 2009, during unrests after June 12 presidential election in Iran, resulting in his arrest, accused of acting against national security - espionage. Yaghoghil Shaolian conviction appears to have been through a denial of a fair trial, resulting in being sentenced to two and a half years in prison. Will Canada – together with our allies and international partners – intervene to monitor his conditions of detention, his trial, provide legal assistance, and otherwise protect the life of this innocent Iranian citizen?

My name is Arieh Perecowicz. I am a proud Montrealer, and Canadian, who is gravely concerned about human rights. Particularly in the wake of Canada’s sponsorship of a resolution in the United Nations on Iran’s deplorable human rights record, I request that the Canadian government uses its good offices to intervene on behalf and monitor the conditions and trial of Mr. Yaghoghil Shaolian, an Iranian national, who was picked up and falsely imprisoned on trumped up charges, and risks arbitrary severe punishment, or even death. His predicament, as a member of Iran’s small and vulnerable Jewish community, is most precarious, and urgently requires Canada’s and the international community’s protest and intervention.
