The mother of the patient colon cancer patient, Elias Al- Mulla, announced on Sunday (July 7th) that she entered a hunger strike on Monday in solidarity with him and demanded that he be taken to hospital for the necessary treatment.
In a videotape, al-Mulla’s mother said that she took the step to live part of her son’s suffering and to feel the situation in prison, hoping that their strike would quickly compel the authority to transfer him to the hospital to complete his treatment. She expressed concern and fear for his safety, as she did not receive any call from him to check on him. She confirmed that she will continue her hunger strike so that he can receive treatment.
On 6, July, 2019, al-Mulla announced a hunger strike in protest against the procrastination by the prison of Joe in taking him to hospital for treatment.
It should be mentioned that Alias Al-Mulla, who was arrested on May 11, 2012, was sentenced on May 5, 2013 to 15 years in prison on politically motivated charges. Al- Mulla has a colon cancer and suffers from a bilateral fracture of his wrist and arm while exercising, causing him double pains, as well as he is suffering from osteoporosis.
