Their names are Ali Qolizadeh, Alireza Kiani, Mohsen Barzegar and Mohamad Heydarzadeh.
Their whereabouts are unknown.

Tomorrow the UN will vote to determine the 41 member executive board of the new UN women’s agency, UN Women.
The new organization is meant to focus “exclusively on gender equality and women’s empowerment.”
Yet UN Women is expected to invite two of the world’s most anti-woman states onto its board, the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Both countries are gender-apartheid states that have enshrined women’s second-class status in their constitutions.
The mission of free Iran fundamentally reject the anti-woman policies of these states, and we fundamentally reject the anti-woman stance taken by the United Nations as an organization.
When November 10th the United Nations and its constituent governments dare to neglect the outcry raised by women and men worldwide that opposes the misogyny of the United Nations and the regimes it invites to the table, the world must be prepared to respond forcefully.
The Mission of Free Iran will protest December 11th in front of the UN to demand the criminalization of stoning worldwide and the removal of anti-woman regimes from all of the UN’s gender policy bodies.
