"We are talking about Roxana Saberi, an American-Iranian journalist who worked for ABC Radio, the BBC and South African television. Accused of spying, sentenced to eight years and imprisoned, she went on hunger strike. On 1 May, very weak, she was transferred to the prison hospital. We know that for five weeks she was denied access to a lawyer. Her trial was neither fair nor transparent. Yesterday the BBC announced that next week, on 12 May, the Appeal Court will hear Roxana Saberi’s appeal, but that this would again take place in a closed-door session. We condemn the Iranian Revolutionary Court’s unfounded decision on Roxana Saberi. In addition, I think it is very important to once again urge Iranian Government institutions to comply with the provisions of all international human rights instruments ratified by Iran, in particular, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which both guarantee the right to a fair trial."@en1
