Iranian Christian Pastor Farshid Fathi is spending his 35th birthday in an Iranian prison.
He was arrested in December of 2010 simply for his faith in Christ and was later sentenced to six years imprisonment in February of 2012.
For reasons unknown, Farshid was recently moved to one of Iran’s most brutal prisons, Rajai Shahr.
His situation has become precarious since the move and Elam Ministries reports he is having trouble sleeping for fear of being attacked by fellow inmates.
Rajai Shahr is where fellow Christian prisoner Saeed Abedini is also incarcerated.
David Yeghnazar with Elam Ministries spoke with CBN News from the United Kingdom about Pastor Farshid’s situation and renewed efforts to see him released.
