On Sunday, November 11, Mr. Heidari, 29, who had been arrested repeatedly for writing anti-regime poems, was suspiciously poisoned and subsequently died in a Hospital.

Terrified of the spread of the protests, the clerical regime forced Mr. Heidari’s family to bury him secretly, allowing the presence of only a few of his relatives. Nevertheless, a huge crowd went to the cemetery, causing heavy traffic in Kut-e Abdollah.
