Recently these Basiji are kidnapping and torturing

the innocent relatives of prodemocracy activitists outside Iran, to stiffle their free speach.  For example the father of the young man promoting Naghi campaign in Holland.  These criminal actions have to stop and answers will have to be given for such crimes, not just by basiji, but by the regime which does not condemn these activities by their thugs.
