During the weeks leading up to the April 15 anniversary of a 2005 protest and subsequent crackdown were according to the European Ahwazi Human Rights Organisation (EAHRO)  at least 26 people arrested in Ahwaz and surroundings by the Iranian authorities.
April 15, 2005 widespread demonstrations broke out in various neighborhoods of Ahwaz in protest against ethnic discrimination and government policies which lead to substantial dislocation of Arab-Iranians and impoverishment of local communities. At the time, Iranian authorities arrested hundreds of protestors, and since then they have responded to local grievances with a heavy-handed policy of repression.
