Farewell life, bury me right here in my cell in Evin [prison], says Soheil Arabi in “taped will” that is widely circulated on social media.

Soheil Arabi, 32, has been on hunger strike for the past 38 days. Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) security agents arrested Arabi at his home in Tehran in November 2013. He then spent two months in the IRGC's Ward 2-A in Tehran’s notorious Evin prison. He is currently kept in section 350 of Evin, run by the judiciary.

“Today (September 23, first day of school year in Iran) is the third year that my daughter goes to school and I am not with her. I have gone on dry and liquid hunger strike since I do not want her to see me behind bars, anymore”, Arabi wrote in a letter.

Furthermore, in what he has called as his “taped will”, Arabi has also referred to his poor health, suffering from gastric bleeding and five over six blood pressure.

Bury me right here in my cell in section 350 of Evin”, Arabi laboriously pleads, adding, “I am sure that soon Evin will be transformed into a museum [of injustice] Soheil Arabi in taped message from Evin Prison “Farewell, life”, says Arabi in his taped message, addressing his wife and daughter and asking them forgiveness.

“Bury me right here in my cell in section 350 of Evin”, Arabi laboriously pleads, adding, “I am sure that soon Evin will be transformed into a museum [of injustice]”.

Panting with much difficulty, Arabi insists, “Please do not shed tears for me. On my death anniversary, play Edith Piaff’s ‘la Vie en Rose’ for me”.

On Friday, September 29, Amnesty international (AI) raised concern over Arabi’s deteriorating health condition, called for his “immediate” and “unconditional” release and providing him with full access to medical care.

Meanwhile, in an interview with Radio Farda, Arabi’s mother said “The last time I saw Soheil was two weeks ago. I am so worried for my son who needs urgent medical attention. However, they have allowed me to talk to him every day through telephone”.

According to International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran, on 4 September 2014, Branch 15 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court also sentenced Arabi to three years in prison on charges of "insulting the Supreme Leader" and "propaganda against the state" in his postings on Facebook.

In late September 2015, his sentence was commuted to "reading 13 religious books and studying theology for two years", the daily Guardian reported on 30 September 2015.
