Hundreds of students from Tabriz University demonstrated aginst the University authorities strickt prohiitions which resulted in the death of 3 woman class mates.
They were chanting , "We want change '...while singing the famous " my eloved class mate' commemorating the 3 girls killes because of insufficient attention og authrities in safety and logistical problems of the campuses, the angry strudents shoutes ; "death to the dictator" and "we don't want a fascist regime". They called on the authorities to free fellow students who had been arrested over the past several months. They also demanded that members of the hard-line Bassij force, an off-shoot of Irans Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, be expelled from universities.

On a bigger scale last demosntration of Sanati Sharif University, State Security Forces (SSF) attacked the protestors, and according to several students, at least 25 of their classmates were taken away by police.

Several students, who said they were supporters of the People's Mujahedin Organisation of Iran, claimed that the SSF and intelligence ministry agents raided the homes of several Amirkabir students on Tuesday, arresting their classmates and transferring them to Ward 209 of Tehran's notorious Evin Prison.

Those arrested include Ahmad Qasaban, Nariman Mostafavi, Mehdi Mashayekhi and Abbas Hakim Zadeh.

Hossein Torkashvand, Majid Tavakoli, Esmail Salmanpour and Vahid Daneshyar are currently on hunger strike in Ward 209 of Evin, they said. All four, who were studying at Amirkabir, were detained on February 5 by intelligence ministry agents.

Students from the University of Tehran separately protested earlier this week outside the Faculty of Law against the government-orchestrated crackdown on Iranian universities.
