Dorothy Parvaz

Aljazeera journalist still missing

Boston Globe: It was supposed to be a carefree reunion at Harvard’s Nieman Foundation, with lots of catching up between close friends who live apart. Instead, friends of the journalist Dorothy Parvaz who gathered this weekend found themselves fixated on her absence: The 39-year-old Al Jazeera reporter, who traveled to Syria two weeks ago to cover prodemocracy protests, has not been heard from since. The disappearance of Parvaz, who is now believed to be in custody in Iran, is the latest in a series of dire developments for journalists working overseas >>>

Well you should take a nonsequence of speaking here too. Maybe a solitary cell in Evin would fit?

What Risk did she take? She is a journalist and she travelled to Syria legally to cover a story for a news channel, she did not do anything illegal.

I wish and hope for a immidate and unconditional safe return

for her.  I saw a report from Iranian goverment making inquires and demand from Syrian goverment, but that could be just a show.

But a consistent and relentless campaign of pressure on the government of Syria and Iran should be kept till, she is freed with safe return home.

Dorothy, You Are Not in Kansas Anymore!

Dorothy went to Syria with an expired Iranian passport to expose the little man behind the curtain, but got caught by the Regime and was sent to Iran.

I hope that she gets out soon and without too many scars.

Kidnap women who speak up, is this part of their religious practices or they are that chicken?

I wish and hope she survive these sick animals.
