NCRI – The anti-government student protest which started this afternoon by about 1,000 students at
the Social Sciences School of Allameh University in Tehran is continuing into the early evening hours.
Despite desperate attempts by the university security guards, agents of State Security Forces (SSF) and so-called plain cloths members of Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) to contain the demonstrations, the students managed to shutdown all classes and called on their professors to join them. They chanted slogans “Death to dictator,” “University is not a military camp,” “This is the final warning,” “University students are ready for uprising,” “Free minded professors, join us” and “Students, professors unite.”
During clashes between the students and security forces six students were arrested and transferred to an unknown location by the SSF. The detained students are identified as Mahsa Mehrzad, Nilofar Abd-Haq, Behnam Sepehrvand, Araman Sedaqati, Maziyar Samiee and Mohammad Yazdani.
