(New York, July 21, 2008) – Iranian authorities should immediately release or charge two physicians who are internationally recognized for their work on HIV/AIDS, Human Rights Watch said today. The men, Arash and Kamyar Alaei, who are brothers, were detained without charge by Iranian security forces in late June, and their whereabouts remain unknown. On June 22, security forces detained Arash Alaei, holding him overnight at an unknown location. The following morning, they accompanied him to his home, where they arrested Kamyar Alaei and seized material and documents belonging to the brothers. The authorities have not yet announced why the brothers were detained or whether or not they intend to bring any charges against them. Moreover, they have refused to disclose information about where the Alaei brothers are being held and have not provided them access to counsel.

I.R.I., has the highest "Brain Drain" ranking in the world!
by ThePope on Tue Jul 22, 2008 09:03 AM PDTI WONDER WHY? SERIOUSLY, WHY??
Approximately 200 000 of our intellectuals and talented students are estimated to exit Iran every year, as IRI reports. I F#*?ing wonder why?
When two top scientists, internationally recongnized, disappear without any explanation whatsoever, how should the rest of our intellects feel secure?
How the hell the stupid arab regime of I.R. claims that several measures have been taken to slow down the brain drain
phenomenon and they support and preserve our geniuses inside Iran with new "social advantages"!!!
