There are times that a person begins to think where does Canada stand on matter of human rights and morality? How Canada is preventing human rights violation in Iran? Quite frankly, Canada has no morality. Furthermore, Canada assist the cleric regime to spread its propaganda globally by providing platform to mouthpiece of the cleric like Akbar Ganji, who acts like a opposing voice against the cleric. However, he is a well known charcater that he is working for the cleric and he is a spy to identify adversary and to report them to his master in Iran.
Akbar Ganji is the recipient of the 2007 John Humphrey Freedom Award presented by Rights and Democracy.
Ganji is an emblematic figure of dissent in Iran . Well-known journalist and author, Akbar Ganji spent six years in prison for exposing rights abuses committed by Iran ’s fundamentalist regime. The charges stemmed from a series of investigative articles exposing the complicity of then President Rafsanjani and other leading members of the conservative clergy in the murders of political dissidents and intellectuals in 1998. During his time in prison, Mr. Ganji endured solitary confinement and went on a hunger strike that lasted from May to August 2005. He also continued to write, producing a series of influential political manifestos and open letters calling for Iran ’s secularization and the establishment of democracy through mass civil disobedience. The works were smuggled out of Evin prison and published on the Internet. Mr. Ganji’s work has appeared in pro-democracy newspapers across Iran , most of which the government has since shut down. He has also written many books, including the bestselling The Dungeon of Ghosts (1999) and The Red Eminence and The Grey Eminence (2000).
