The reports from Evin prison indicate that Amir Eslami is in critical condition and all nine jailed Gonabadi Dervishes who have begun a hunger strike are suffering from extreme body weakness.
According to Majzooban Noor, last night, 19 Shahrivar (10 September) imprisoned Gonabadi Dervish lawyer in Evin’s ward 7 , Amir Eslami, suffered from a severe and disabling headache and hypotension, then, while he had no authority over his own body was sent to the Evin prison infirmary.
Mr. Amir Eslmai who is suffering from chronic migraine along with Mostafa Abdi, another rights activist of Gonabadi Dervishes, after being transferred from ward 350 to the solitary confinement, have recently been transferred to the wards 7 and 8 of Evin prison.
It has been reported that Mr. Hamid-Reza Moradi who had recently undergone heart surgery and was returned from hospital to Evin Prison, frequently experiences nausea with chest pain.
The reports mention weight loss in Farshid Yadollahi, the first Dervish who went on hunger strike, the deterioration of the physical condition of Afshin Karampour, Mostafa Daneshjou and Reza Entesari, who on the 6th day of their hunger strike went on drug strike too.

It is pertinent to say that nine rights activists of Dervishes in prisons of Evin and Nezam in Tehran and Shiraz, by signing a testament had announced that they would not halt hunger strike as long as the civil rights of Dervishes are not met. The imprisoned Dervishes write that they have already written their wills and are prepared to die for their cause.
