Traditional Nowruz celebrations include the preparation of a "Haft Sin" table which literally means the seven s’s. Seven items beginning with the Persian letter sin (equivalent to the English s) and which represent spring time are set out. To honor this tradition, this year Amnesty International has selected seven cases, all of them prisoners for whom we
have been campaigning.
We ask you to send cards with simple Nowruz greetings such as “Nowruz mobarak”. Let them know that they are not forgotten.
This year we write solidarity messages for Omid Kokabee, Saeed Malekpour, Zeynab Jalalian, Abdolfattah Soltani, Mohammad Sadiq Kabudvand, Bahareh Hedayat and Hossein Ronaghi Maleki.
