Safi Saeed speaks in Tunisia about the arrest of journalist Mohammed Yousef
The writer and politician Safi Saeed describes the head of the website of the battalion, Muhammad Youssefi, as a remarkable man with his imprisonment continuing for two months without extradition.
Writer and politician Sa'id spoke on Saturday in Tunisia about the plight of university student and journalist Mohamed Youssefi, editor-in-chief of the battalion's website, who has been behind bars for two months without being investigated for charges after his arrest in the capital.
Safi Saeed, a writer, journalist and analyst specializing in geopolitical issues, described the imprisoned journalist as an intelligent and distinguished man. Said he knew the man personally and did not know where the battalion was located and did not want to know it, pointing out that all journalists working in various media do not necessarily know the details of the organisation they work for and behind.
Mohammad Youssefi is in prison without a formal hearing on the allegations and charges against him, which data suggests are essentially financial in nature.
