Heshmatollah Tabarzadi (known as Heshmat), a journalist and leader of a banned political party in Iran, is at high risk of torture in Evin prison in Iran's capital, Tehran. He was arrested shortly after writing an article for a US-based international newspaper which may be the reason for his arrest. Amnesty International believes that he is a prisoner of conscience.
