Our people have given us more than what we expected this morning.
We owe our voters a fortune, and we will only repay them by
to bring all the good things to them and to our country.
Nagas, on December 12th, attended the funeral of a lawyer in the northern city of Mashhad who died in his office very suspiciously.
And so many civil society activists, lawyers and his colleagues, friends were suspicious about his death.
Nagas had a very fiery speech at the funeral.
Subsequently, she was arrested and she has been in prison since.
That speech received a lot of attention on social media in which she basically very harshly criticized the Islamic Republic.
Iran, the government, has brought her seven more years in prison.
The government has accused her in participating in an illegal gathering and spreading propaganda against the regime.
There has been several arrests in the past 24 hours.
It seems that the Iranian government has started a severe crackdown among those political figures who are known.
There are rumors circulating on social media among activists that people were getting ready to announce a silent protest at the 40th day of the killings in Iran.
And that has made the government very agitated.
If that's true, it explains why the government wants to prevent people coming back to the streets.
And even it's a silent protest for the Iranian government.
It's just very tricky after what happened on the streets on January 8th and January 9th.
The government has been accusing the enemy or the West or the agents of Mossad and others basically to justify the violence they have committed.
They want to keep their base intact.
But, you know, when people start coming to the streets again for grievances that make sense to everybody, including many people in their base, we will see signs of crack.
