1) He was arrested 4 days after the election with a warrant that was dated 2 days BEFORE the election, charging him with participation in the chaos (term used for after-election unrest!)
2) in the 27 hours after his arrest, he was charged with: doubting the election results, while there is no such term in law, and that it is not a crime to doubt election results!
3) He is a human rights lawyer who had no participation in anyone's election campaign!
4) He was also charged with "propaganda against the regime", and "creating a group to act against national security"--a charge that Soltani categorically rejects!
Four years ago, Soltani (or Sultani) was arrested for revealing evidence to defend his client. He was charged then, and imprisoned for 7 months for "propaganda against the regime" and "revealing secret documents"!
This time, he was kept in solitary confinement for 18 days; with no access to books, communication, pen or paper and NO SHOWER!
