Yves Veyrier, former FO General Secretary during a rally in support of three French nationals Cecile Kohler, Jacques Paris and Olivier Grondeau, currently imprisoned in Iran, at the Place du Pantheon in Paris, FRance, on February 1, 2025. Teacher Cecile Kohler and her partner Jacques Paris were arrested on May 7, 2022 and they are accused of seeking to stir up labour protests, which were denied by their families. Grondeau was arrested in Shiraz in October 2022, and sentenced to five years in prison for "conspiracy against the Islamic republic", according to his mother as his family rejects the charges, describing him as a passionate fan of Persian poetry travelling to Iran on a tourist visa as part of a world tour.
