Iranian-Canadian journalist in custody
Iranian-Canadian journalist Ramin Jahanbegloo is arrested. Nobody knows why. There are rumors and gossips heard here and there. The government hasn't issued any statement yet. No official has got any stance yet. It's heard that as usual the accusation is Espionage. It's said he has had an interview with some Spanish magazine challenging the stances of Ahmadi-nejad and that's the reason for the arrest. How one can be sure about it? Well, nobody knows whether it's true or not. But the dark cloud woven by the government around his detention –it's usually the same when an opponent is in custody- gives a very bad impression. Most of all, the silence of his family and relatives shows that they are under pressures (is there anybody who doesn't know by whom?) to be quite. This is usual too. When somebody is arrested, the interrogators 'recommend' the family to keep their mouth shut because 'that's better for their dear one'.

This is a blog some of his friends are running to cover the news about him.
