Farzad Kamangar is a 33 year old teacher, journalist and a member of Human Rights Activists in Iran. Mr. Kamangar is of the Kurdish Ethnicity and was teaching in the city of Kamyaran before his arrest in August of 2006.
In the past 19 months Mr. Kamangar has been subjected to the most brutal tortures imaginable. On February 25th 2008 was found guilty of "risking national security and being a member of the Kurdistan Workers Party" and sentenced to death.
Mr. Kamangar has at all times maintained his innocence, and denied all charges against him. An International Campaign has been launched by Human Rights Activists in Iran in support of Mr. Kamangar.
