Hi everyone,

Just a quick update on the urgent appeal we sent out yesterday on Sina Paymard’s case in Iran.

We have heard from Sina Paymard’s lawyer that he was not executed last night, which is very good news. The family are allowing 10 more days for the rest of the blood money in the case to be found. However, if the remainder of the money is not raised in this time, the family are determined to have Sina executed, so there is still work to be done.

Thank you to all of you who took action online and posted Sina’s case on your blogs. We had an unprecedented number of web actions taken yesterday – 400 people in less that 4 hours! As we write this, the latest number is over 600. Taking action does work…thank you for your support.

We’ll keep you posted with how things progress as we know more…

Ciao,
Liz and Steve
