LISTEN | Canadians are slowly learning what happened to friends and family in Iran:
Dr. Alireza Golchini was arrested in Iran, suffering severe abuse, with his family left unaware of his fate for 48 hours. He is one of many Canadians anxiously awaiting news about relatives amid violent protests in Iran that have reportedly resulted in over 7,000 deaths. While Alireza was released pending trial, he faces restrictions on his ability to work or travel, and concerns about his future are mounting. Human rights advocates emphasize the repression of medical workers and the need for accountability for the Iranian regime.
