Four people have been arrested in Peru on suspicion of killing dozens of people in order to sell their fat and tissue for cosmetic uses in Europe.

The gang allegedly targeted people on remote roads, luring them with fake job offers before killing them and extracting their fat.

The liquidised product fetched $15,000 (£9,000) a litre and police suspect it was sold on to companies in Europe.

At least five other suspects, including two Italian nationals, remain at large.

Please be careful when you go on a date with a hypnotist.

A professional hypnotist in South Korea tried to steal a kiss from his blind date after he thought his hypnotism worked on her. Instead, his date was fully alert and pushed him away when he tried to advance on her.

The hypnotist chanted the following to hypnotize her - "Black hole! You will plunge deeper into a trance. You will feel thrilled all over your body and if my hand touches your body, you will feel intense pleasure." But unfortunately for the guy and fortunately for the girl, it did not work.

The 32-year-old man suggested hypnotising his 27-year-old date during their first meeting arranged by a matchmaking agency in August last year, according to the Dong-a Ilbo newspaper and Yonhap news agency.

The woman was eventually persuaded, and the hypnotist chanted: "Black hole! You will plunge deeper into a trance. You will feel thrilled all over your body and if my hand touches your body, you will feel intense pleasure."

When the man, identified only by his surname, Park, thought his technique had worked, he went to kiss her.

But the woman was fully alert, though her eyes were closed, and she pushed him away.

Later, she filed accusations that he had sexually harassed her, the reports said.

The guy was fined for 3 million won ($2,453).

What happened to charm, attention and TLC? Remember boys, there are no shortcuts :).

Summary

• Number of Baha’is in prison: At least 31, counting the seven people who comprised the group known as the Friends in Iran. Those seven have now been in prison more than a year.

• For seven “leaders,” court date and charges unclear: In February, government spokesmen said the group of seven Baha’i leaders imprisoned in Tehran would have a court hearing within a few days. No trial or hearing has ever been held, and accusations announced orally by officials have never been formalized. The seven Baha’is have had no access to legal counsel since their arrest.

• International reaction: The Australian Parliament on 25 May called upon Iran to release without delay the seven Baha’i leaders in prison in Tehran. Earlier, on 14 May, the Canadian government called for the release of the prisoners, and the European Union again has expressed concern about violation of religious freedom in Iran. In late May, Amnesty International issued its annual worldwide report and specifically mentioned the situation of the Baha’is in Iran. Dozens of governments, NGOs, and prominent individuals have spoken out in the past year, urging release of Baha’i prisoners or the guarantee of a fair trial.

• Ad hoc committees disbanded: The Baha’is of Iran have disbanded even the informal committees that had been trying to tend to the needs of the community since the 1980s, when formal Baha’i administration was suspended. This includes the seven-member group known as the Friends in Iran as well as smaller, informal committees that operated at the local level. The Baha’is took this action as a goodwill gesture to the government after authorities indicated they no longer looked with favor upon these committees.

• No letup in attacks: Government authorities continue to increase the pressure on the Baha’i community of Iran. They do this through arrests, confiscation of assets, closing of businesses, long interrogations, raids on homes, destruction of cemeteries, denial of education and employment, harassment of schoolchildren, and other forms of persecution. An organized campaign of disinformation continues not only in government-sponsored media but also by clerics who speak in mosques and schools.In late May, Baha’is of Semnan were prevented from carrying out a burial in a Baha’i cemetery – harassment that shows clearly that the persecution of Baha’is is based solely on religion, not on any danger that Baha’is represent to anyone.

At least 31 Baha’is in prison

Counting the seven people in Tehran who constituted the group that was known as the Friends in Iran, at least 31 Iranian Baha’is are in prison because of their religion. The seven “leaders” have now spent a full year in jail, six of them since 14 May 2008 and one since 5 March 2008.

The number of Baha’is in detention in Iran varies frequently as new people are arrested but others released after surrendering business licenses or posting property deeds or cash as collateral. Since March, there have been arrests in Shiraz, Semnan, Karaj, Tokeabon, Babol, Hamadan, Miandoab, Yazd, and Sari.

The collateral, or bail, required for temporary release from custody is often exorbitant. For example, six people arrested earlier this year in Tehran and released on bail in March (including a woman who had worked as a secretary for Nobel laureate Shirin Ebadi) had to post the equivalent of more than $70,000 each.

As of 1 June, the cases of at least 220 Baha’is are still active with the authorities. This includes individuals in prison, those who have been released pending trial, those who have appealed their verdicts, those awaiting notification to begin serving prison sentences, and a few who are serving periods of internal exile. Thousands more have been questioned, threatened, or deprived of pensions, livelihood or education.

Accusations against “leaders” still not formalized; court date unclear

Authorities openly announced in early 2009 that accusations against the seven Baha’i leaders imprisoned in Tehran would include “espionage for Israel, insulting religious sanctities, and propaganda against the Islamic republic.” More recently, families of the seven were told that a charge of “spreading corruption on earth” may be added, but this has never been announced publicly. No charges whatsoever have been formalized in any public court record, and no court date has ever been announced. Some of the crimes mentioned are punishable by death.

The names of the seven Baha’is are Mrs. Fariba Kamalabadi, Mr. Jamaloddin Khanjani, Mr. Afif Naeimi, Mr. Saeid Rezaie, Mrs. Mahvash Sabet, Mr. Behrouz Tavakkoli, and Mr. Vahid Tizfahm. Mrs. Sabet was arrested on 5 March 2008 and the others on 14 May 2008. Until their imprisonment, they were part of a group that on an ad hoc basis helped tend to the needs of the 300,000 Baha’is in Iran.

Nobel laureate Shirin Ebadi and her colleagues at the Center for Defenders of Human Rights in Iran are the attorneys of record for the seven jailed Baha’is but have not been allowed access to the prisoners or to their files.

The Baha’i International Community categorically denies the accusations against the seven individuals, and also denies that they have “confessed” to any charges, as prosecutors have suggested.

Their detention constitutes another step in a 30-year-long systematic campaign orchestrated by the government to eliminate the Bahá’í community as a viable entity in Iran, the birthplace of the Bahá’í Faith. Documentary evidence of this campaign is available and has been brought to light by agencies of the United Nations and others.

The accusation of spying is contrived and has long been used as a pretext to persecute Baha’is and as an attempt to impede the progress of the Bahá’í community. Since the 1930s, Baha’is have successively been accused of being tools of Russian imperialism, of British colonialism, of American expansionism, and, most recently, of Zionism. The Baha’i Faith has never been a part of any of these movements. There is no truth to this allegation, nor is there any evidence to support it.

That the international headquarters of the Baha’i Faith is located within the borders of modern-day Israel is purely the result of Baha’u’llah, the founder of the Baha’i Faith, being banished from his native Tehran and sent – by Persian and Ottoman authorities in the 19th century – to perpetual exile in the city of Acre, near Haifa. Baha’u’llah arrived in Acre in 1868, 80 years before the establishment of the state of Israel. The Iranian government knows this.

Accusations that Baha’is “insult religious sanctities” and promote “propaganda against the Islamic regime” are completely without foundation – Baha’is respect all religions, including Islam, and are loyal to government.

International reaction

The Australian Parliament on 25 May called upon Iran to release without delay the seven Baha’i leaders in prison in Tehran. Six members of Parliament from both major parties spoke in support of a notice of motion in the House of Representatives.

Also on 25 May, the European Union again expressed concern about violation of religious freedom in Iran. The statement mentions persecution of Christians, Baha’is, and others and “urgently calls on the Iranian authorities to uphold their international legal undertakings to safeguard religious freedom and to stop their persecution of legitimate religious activities.”

On 14 May, Canadian Foreign Minister Lawrence Cannon publicly called upon Iran to release the seven Baha’is and “cease the harassment” of members of the Baha’i Faith. “We believe they are being detained solely because of their faith,” he stated.

Amnesty International, it its annual worldwide report on human rights, referred specifically to the harassment and persecution suffered by the Baha’is in Iran and plainly stated that the seven leaders are “prisoners of conscience.”

Dozens of governments, government officials, international organizations, and prominent individuals have issued similar statements since the arrest of the seven Baha’i leaders in Iran more than a year ago. (See separate page for links to statements.)

Ad hoc committees disbanded

On 5 March, the Baha'i International Community sent an open letter to Iran’s prosecutor general, Ayatollah Qorban-Ali Dorri-Najafabadi, stating that the Baha’is of Iran were willing to change their administrative procedures if the government was now declaring even the small ad hoc committees illegal.

The Baha’is said they were willing to do this “for no other reason than to demonstrate yet again the goodwill that the Baha’is have consistently shown to the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran for the past 30 years.”

(Beginning in the 1980s when the Iranian government banned formal Baha’i institutions, the small group known as the Friends in Iran tried to take care of the minimum spiritual and social needs of the Baha’i community, as did smaller groups at the local level known as the Khademin. The government knew of these committees and communicated regularly with them, but in February of this year suddenly indicated that even these ad hoc groups were no longer acceptable to authorities.)

(Read BWNS article about the letter, or the letter itself.)

No letup in attacks

Attacks against the Baha’i community in Iran continue to escalate. These include arrests, long interrogations, raids on homes, confiscation of assets, closing of businesses, denial of education and employment, harassment of schoolchildren, and many other forms of persecution.

Destruction of cemeteries and preventing members of the Baha’i community from burying their dead is a particularly cruel form of harassment – one that clearly reveals that persecution of Baha’is is based on religion and not on any danger that Baha’is represent. In one recent case in Semnan, authorities refused to allow a burial unless the family of the deceased followed Islamic rites; the family declined.

Cemetery desecrations have been common and, in addition to the destruction of gravestones, often involve hateful graffiti and other vandalism. In Semnan, a mortuary was burned and the graffiti threatened death to “unclean infidel Baha’is.”

An organized campaign of disinformation about the Baha’i Faith and its followers continues not only in government-sponsored media but also by clerics who speak in mosques and schools.

This use of schools to harass children and their families has become a key part of the anti-Baha’i campaign all across Iran. Many instances of the following have been reported:

• students being expelled outright or denied enrollment;

• teachers and school administrators openly insulting and vilifying students;

• anti-Baha’i seminars being held at schools, or anti-Baha’i materials distributed;

• Baha’i students being forced to participate in Muslim religious functions;

• students and parents being summoned to the Ministry of Intelligence.

Reports of these types of incidents and dozens of others have come from Tehran, Isfahan, Karaj, Rasht, Fardis, Vilashahr, Shiraz, Kashan, and Roodehen.

At the university level, educational institutions remain virtually closed to Baha’is students. The few Baha’is who have managed to enroll are swiftly being expelled.

Home raids continue in various cities and usually follow the pattern of agents from the Ministry of Intelligence searching a home; confiscating computers, mobile phones, books, and other materials; and taking residents into custody.

Authorities also apply pressure to Muslim citizens to discriminate against and mistreat Baha’is. For example, in the city of Khorramabad in western Iran, the Ministry of Intelligence recently summoned private-sector employers and pressured them to dismiss Baha’i employees.

The pervasiveness of the persecution

In summary, harassment of Baha’is is pervasive and includes many incidents of all of the following::

• Arrests and detention, with imprisonment lasting for days, months, or years. In cases where the Baha’i is released, substantial bail is often required.
• Direct intimidation and questioning by authorities, sometimes with the use of high-intensity lights and physical mistreatment.
• Searches of homes and business, usually with Baha’i books and other items confiscated.
• School expulsions and harassment of schoolchildren.
• Prohibition on Baha’is attending universities.
• Court proceedings where Baha’is are accused of promoting propaganda against the government “for the benefit of the Bahaist sect.”
• Monitoring of the bank accounts, movement, and activities of Baha’is, including official questioning of Baha’is requiring them to give information about their lives, actions, neighbors, etc.
• Denial or confiscation of business licenses.
• Denial of work opportunities in general.
• Denial of rightful inheritances to Baha’is.
• Physical assaults, and efforts to drive Baha’is out of towns and villages.
• Desecration and destruction of Baha’i cemeteries, and harassment over burial rights.
• Dissemination, including in official news media, of misinformation about Baha’is, and incitement of hatred against Baha’is.
• Evictions from places of business, including Baha’i doctors from their offices and clinics.
• Intimidation of Muslims who associate with Baha’is.
• Attempts by authorities to get Baha’is to spy on other Baha’is.
• Threatening phone calls and letters to Baha’is.
• Denial of pension benefits.
• Denial of access to publishing or copying facilities for Baha’i literature.
• Confiscation of property.
