6) Shiva Nazar Ahari arrested June 14, 2009
released on bail on 24 September 2009
human rights activist, blogger and journalist, a member of Committee of Human Rights Reporters , Shiva Nazar Ahari is also a teacher of a group of disadvantaged children. È stata presidente del Comitato studenti in difesa dei prigionieri politici. Fin da quando era studentessa alla Sadra University, la Nazar Ahari ha svolto, in patria e all’estero, opera di sensibilizzazione sulla situazione dei diritti umani in Iran, sollecitando l’attenzione della comunità internazionale alle ripetute violazioni commesse dal regime. Questa attività l'ha costretta a subire intimidazioni e arresti.
Il 5 dicembre 2004 si recava a una manifestazione studentesca, quando degli agenti fermarono il taxi su cui si trovava e, rifiutandosi di esibire un mandato di arresto, la prelevarono con la forza per condurla all’ufficio investigativo del Ministero dell’informazione, dove fu trattenuta per dodici ore. Gli agents who questioned her said she was to have her arrested "for his own good."
In 2005 she was arrested with two other women in front of UN headquarters in Tehran on charges of "illegally taking part in an event designed for the purpose of threatening state security and created disturbances in public giving interviews to the media. "
In August 2007, while crazy so-called "morality campaign" of the government, Shiva Nazar Ahari launched a genuine cry of distress in an interview to ' Adnkronos International, "In Over the last three months have been arrested thousands of people, all accused of the crime, not well defined, of 'hooliganism', or described as 'socially dangerous elements'. All these people are in danger of being sent to the gallows after a summary trial in which they can not rely on a lawyer to defend them. The relatives of those sentenced to death for crimes so confusing - and many of them are aged between 20 and 30 years - are informed only after their relative was hanged. Many of these young men arrested in the last three months the jail Kharizak , on the outskirts of Tehran. Up to 40 prisoners are crammed in celle di 15 metri quadri, dove ricevono un solo pasto al giorno e spesso vengono frustati. Sei di loro, di età compresa tra i 20 e i 25 anni, sono morti in seguito a infezioni causate dalle frustate.” 
Secondo alcune fonti la Nazar Ahari è stata arrestata il 14 giugno 2009 in casa sua. Secondo altre l’arresto è avvenuto alle 13.30 (ora iraniana) nel suo ufficio, ma già la notte precedente agenti dei servizi segreti l’avrebbero cercata in casa e, non avendola trovata, avrebbero perquisito l’abitazione prelevando numerosi suoi oggetti personali. Due settimane dopo l’arresto, la madre, Shahrzad Kariman, intervistata da Radio Farda, ha detto: “Sono andata the Ministry for Safety, the Revolutionary Court to Evin prison, but nobody could tell me anything about her. " The latest news, after more than a month of detention, it is that Shiva was allowed to call the family twice. A few days ago her mother wrote an open letter published on the blog of the "Mothers of Laleh." It was also learned that it is locked up in Evin prison and who shares a cell with three companions, one of which is the journalist and activist for women's rights Jila Baniyaghoub .

Mohamad Nazar Ahari, the father of Shiva, sent a letter to judiciary chief Sadegh Larijiani .
In the letter he points out the main elements of the criminal case regarding her daughter the way she was arrested on June 14 last year (at work, after a raid night at home, where it was found), and its activities in human rights as an editor of the site Committee of Human Rights Defenders , his volunteer activities with children in difficulty and lack of education for the association Khaneh Koodak Shush, his engineering degree and the ' impossible for her to continue their studies because of the ban placed by the authorities against him (and against many other students), and the exorbitant amount of the sum fixed as cauzione per il suo rilascio (500mila dollari, una somma talmente elevata, sottolinea il padre "da creare negli avvocati il dubbio che essa sia stata fissata con la piena consapevolezza della nostra impossibilità di pagarla, per legittimare in tal modo il prolungamento della detenzione di mia figlia").
La lettera si conclude così:
"Onorevole capo della magistratura,
l'amore e il profondo rispetto di mia figlia per il genere umano sono il suo solo crimine. La prigione è fatta per tenere in disparte coloro che mettono in pericolo la società, non mia figlia che ha dedicato la sua intera vita, in età adulta, al servizio della comunità. Poiché finora nessun funzionario responsabile o nessun altro organismo gave no reason or explanation for the diffiicile situation where my daughter is, and because the rights of citizens and of Islamic justice are among its declared objectives in this new era [Sadegh Larijani became head of the judiciary on 15 August, ndt], I ask you humbly to review the file on to my daughter, to consider a reduction in the amount set as bail and facilitate his release. Respectfully
Mohamad Nazar Ahari.
