From SMCCDI: daneshjoo.org Public Statements Ms. "Vajiheh Cheguini" has passed away, on January 20, 2006, in Tehran. The maverick and combatant woman never abdicated from her principles and humanistic believes, despite all pressures exerted by the Islamic republic regime, and she was always supportive of Iranian students and freedom fighters. "Vajiheh Cheguini" raised the anger of the brutal "Ali Falhahian" (an Islamist Cleric known for his involvement in the killing of dissidents and a former Ministry of Intelligence) and hopes in the hearts of many arrested students due to her audacity. She was beaten and threatened many times at her home or in front of the doors of the infamous "Tohid Prison". But just as like as a strong Cedar tree, she always stood tall in face of the enemies of freedom. Her last moments were spent in wishing for the liberation of Iran and of seeing her exiled daughter. May she rest in peace and may her path be consistent!
