In an interview with an Iranian Satellite Television, Delara Darabi’s father stated that he is not only defending Delara’s rights but also defending justice and human rights. “I used to believe in judicial system here when I turned my daughter to authorities, but today I have no trust in this system.” Delara has asked her father not to attempt obtaining pardon or payment of retribution (blood money).. “You raised me for 17 years, do I look like a murderer?. I am not a murder.” Delara said. She told Mr.Darabi that he should first desert her as a duaghter before any attempt of seeking pardon becuase she is not guilty. Mr.Darabi said that Delara is a very sensitie girl but also has much pride.
He said that in his opinion the conditions in Rasht prison where Delara is being kept is not much different than Guatanamo
Bay. He added that his letters to prison authorities have been thrown back at him. The prison authorities are giving her 10’s of pills and not allowing all necessary medical tests on Delara to be done to find the reason for her illness, he added. He said the prison officials often have taken away her pen, paper and painting tools. He pleaded that Delara be moved to a different prison.He then burst in to tears and said they have made a monster out of my daughter . “Is this the Islamic justice?”
Abdolsamad Khoramshahi, Delara’s attorney reiterated that based on details of the case, such as Delara being left handed, she could not have been guilty of murder.
Delara has an older sister who is 1.5 years older who is studying architecture in college. Unlike Nazanin Fatehi who due to poverty had to stop her school at elementary level, Delara has high school education. English is typically the second language instructed in Iran and Iranian high school students have basic knowledge of English laguage.
