American Pastor Saeed Abedini Robbed, Life Threatened at Knifepoint, as Health Deteriorates in Deadly Iranian Prison

Jordan Sekulow : Dec 5, 2013  ACLJ.org

Please continue to pray for the release of Pastor Saeed, and remember how God delivered the Apostle Peter from prison; with God nothing is impossible!

Pastor Saeed and family(Iran)—American Pastor Saeed Abedini not only faces deadly conditions in Iran's Rajai Shahr prison, but we can now confirm that he faces direct threats on his life from other prisoners.

Pastor Saeed's Iranian family was able to visit him yesterday—the second visitation allowed since he was transferred to the deadly new prison last month.

Pastor Saeed is facing constant threats to his very life in the new prison. There have been several nights where he has awoken to men standing over him with knives. Pastor Saeed's "cell" is only separated by a curtain from the rest of the violent prisoner ward he is forced to share, allowing dangerous prisoners—murderers and rapists—unfettered access to him 24 hours a day.

Pastor SaeedHe has also been robbed at knifepoint several times, stripping him of what few necessities he has been permitted to purchase for personal hygiene.

As a result of the robberies, the utterly deplorable conditions of the prison, and the lack of doctor-prescribed medication which is being withheld by prison authorities, Pastor Saeed's health has quickly deteriorated.

The pain in his stomach has returned and he is now experiencing increased pain in what he described to his family as his kidneys. As a result of repeated beatings in Evin prison, Pastor Saeed suffered from internal bleeding. After months of being refused medical care, Pastor Saeed was allowed to see a doctor and was prescribed medication earlier this year. As a result of that medication, his physical condition had improved and his pain had subsided. However, since being moved from Evin to Rajai Shahr last month, Iranian officials have refused to allow him this critical medication and his condition is worsening.
