Sohrab Aarabi's death generated fear among several dozen families camping outside Evin prison, trying to learn the fate of loved ones who vanished in post-election turmoil. The spokesman for the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran said there could be "dozens, or even hundreds" of missing people like Aarabi. "They are people who simply went off the radar screen.… There's no confirmation if they are in prison or dead." Also, the human rights group has demanded for an independent investigation into Sohrab Aarabi’s death, as well as the reason why his family was not notified of his death earlier, according to cnn. The human rights group claims that Aarabi was killed during the protest that took place after the elections, according to reuters.
