UK: June 12, 2009. (PCP) Several Baluch armed groups and tribal chiefs threatened to take action if Mrs Zari Naroee was not released from jail immediately. Mrs Naroee was arrested on 9. 6.09 but was released after the Baluch dignitaries intervened. She was arrested again two days later on 11th of June and was taken to the Intelligence Ministry's prison in Zahedan, the capital of Baluchistan. Her husband, Zabihollah Naroee was hanged on 30.5.09 .He was a cultural activist who had been arrested few months ago. The angry Baluch tribal chiefs, armed groups and specifically Jondollah announced that the Baluch women have never been involved in political or military matters. This has been an established part of Baluch code of conduct and culture. The Baluch men have never insulted any woman from any background and from any colour, religion tribe or race. This is an accepted principle among the Baluch to honour the woman of their opponents and enemies. For the same reasons they have never allowed any governments or adversary to the insult, arrest, torture or hang any Baluch women. The Islamic Republic of Iran violated this internationally accepted principle of human rights several times and each time they were encountered by the strong wrath and reaction of Baluch people. Every time the Islamic Republic of Iran retreated as a result of widespread actions by Baluch people. This time will not be different. Some groups threatened that if Mrs Naroee is not released immediately no non-Baluch women will be safe in Baluchistan and the regime will be responsible for the consequences. The Baluch people believe that proportionate retaliation is permitted in their own culture and according to international law.
