Today is Free Mojtaba and Arash Day
There is a campaign circulating the blogosphere, starting today, with the aim of raising awareness about two Iranian bloggers who have been jailed. Nearly 20 people have been arrested over the past three months in a crackdown against the online press. This particular campaign is drawing attention to Arash Sigarchi and Mojtaba Saminejad. Check out the link for more details and information on what you can do to help. From an article:
When asked if this campaign will work and if the Iranian government will listen and release both Mojtaba and Arash, he told me about Sina, a freed Iranian blogger, "Sina credited the attention of the blogosphere for making the Iranian authorities extremely uncomfortable and letting him go. We're hoping the same thing will happen here."
