INTERNATIONAL HUMANITARIAN DELEGATION TO VISIT REFUGEES IN TURKEY

March 28 - April 3 2010

Human rights violations in Iran are worsening and the authorities are using increased brute violence to intimidate protesters and force fake confessions from detainees. People are living in fear and activists are forced to flee. We are sending an international team of lawyers, medical professionals, and human rights scholars on a fact-finding mission to support recent Iranian refugees in Turkey
