Injured victims of the 2011 revolution organized a sit-in calling for their official recognition by the state as victims

Twenty people who had been injured in the 2011 revolution organized a sit-in in a hallway outside the President of the General Committee and Resistance Fighters, Martyrs and Wounded Survivors of the Revolution and Terrorist Operations’ office where 8 had gone on hunger strike and four had their mouths shut as part of the protest. The protesters demanded the state to officially recognize them as victims by publishing their names in the Official Gazette (JORT) since it might provide stronger legal ground for them to pursue their assailants in court.
