My interview with Poolad Shadman, a 70-year-old opponent of the Islamic Republic, who was severely injured last night by police while protesting outside the Embassy of the Islamic Republic.
Mr Shadman was peacefully demonstrating against the regime when police intervention turned violent. He sustained serious injuries and required medical attention.
This interview documents what happened, gives voice to a man who has spent his life opposing tyranny, and raises urgent questions about the treatment of Iranian dissidents protesting an illegitimate and violent regime.
What happened last night was not just an attack on one man.
It was an attack on the right to protest, on dignity, and on justice.
