The arbitrary resentencing of imprisoned teacher Rasoul Bodaqi in mullahs’ shamcourt to 3 more years in prison

As the schools are about to open, a large number of teachers in the country continue to linger in prison, including Messrs Mahmoud Beheshti Langeroudi, Mehdi Bohlouli and Reza Neiknejad who are recently arrested, as well as Messrs Rasoul Bodaqi, Esmail Abdi, Ali-Akbar Baghbani, Alireza Hashemi and Abdolreza Qanbari who were already in prison. This is while Ali-Asghar Fani, Rouhani’s Education Minister, deceptively expressed hope on September 15 that the imprisoned teachers would be released before September 23, the day that schools open.

The prison term for political prisoner Mr. Rasoul Bodaqi, the noble teacher that has been in prison for six years for defending teachers' rights, ended on August 4, 2015, but the Iranian regime refuses to free him and in an arbitrary and sham trial condemned him to another three years in prison .

He voiced concern for the regime’s prospect and acknowledged the loath of the people and even the regime’s own elements for the Revolutionary Guards: “They promise that the Iran of 10 years from now will not be this Iran. We should not allow this thought and evil hope to grow in the enemy’s heart. We should greatly strengthen the pillars of the revolution and the revolutionary mindset. All should value the IRGC. Weakening the Revolutionary Guards and unrelated statements against it are groundless and please the enemy… The IRGC is a great divine gift in the country.”
