Thank you.
Mr. Batebi, something I think should be made known to people at home who have taken the time to watch is that as a student activist, you found yourself in prison for nine years. I just wanted to acknowledge the courage it takes to continue dissent after that time.
We often sit here in this committee and we hear the words “torture” and “mistreatment” being used. What life is like in a prison is talked about in very general terms. I don't want to invade your personal privacy, but would you tell us a little bit about what it is like in an Iranian prison day to day? It appears to me that torture and execution is systemic in this country.
Could you comment? And if you prefer not to, that's fine as well.
