He is arrested illegally by the INS officers of San Bernardino, CA without any reasonable reason. Mr. Alireza Ghazi Zahedi is a peace & human rights activist.

Asylum Program Victim Fund (tags)
The INS systematically terminated qualified and dedicated employees because they acted independently in accordance with the law. We need help to expose their crimes. Pretexts were used to falsely accuse us of disrespect and insubordination and threaten or impose suspensions. We have had systematically had false and materially misleading data placed in our files. The effect was to try to deprive us of necessary secret clearances. Others were treated even worse, physically abused and humiliated publicly. We need funds to fight back!!!

We cannot understand why the completely legal Iranian immigrants, and the 245 (i) immigrants have been arrested?

And, worst of all, we cannot understand why the sick, the disabled, and the elderly have been arrested? http://www.payvand.com/news/02/dec/1096.html
