'Kianush Sanjari' [1] (Persian: کیانوش سنجری) is an Iranian student and devoted blogger [2][3] well known for his cyber political activism [4] who was arrested in Tehran on 8 October, 2006 together with the cleric Hossein Kazemeyni Boroujerdi, and Kayvan Ansari [5] while reporting on clashes between the Basij forces and supporters of the secularist cleric.
Amnesty international has emphasized the case of Sanjari in it's campaign for freedom of expression irrepressible.info, as Sanjari's charges stopped him from commenting and reporting the clashes on his blog, in a country where state media is heavily censored. [6]
Main articles: White torture
After being arrested and taken to solitary confinement in Evin prison, he has allegedly experienced white torture and commented that:
"''I feel that solitary confinement - which wages war on the soul and mind of a person - can be the most inhuman form of white torture for people like me, who are arrested solely for [defending] citizens' rights. I only hope the day comes when no one is put in solitary confinement [to punish them] for the peaceful expression of his ideas.''" [7]
