I’m surprised that the people didn’t beat the living crap out of the shooter. They just took his ID card and let him go. They refused to respond in kind to this murderer.

"People shouted 'we got him, we got him'. They disarmed him and took out his identity card which showed he was a Basij member. People were furious and he was shouting, 'I didn't want to kill her'.

"People didn't know what do to do with him so they let him go. But they took his identity card. There are people there who know who he is. Some people were also taking photos of him."

So they have his ID card and some photos of him after he was apprehended by the crowd - plenty of evidence to refute the Iranian government's official claim that the shooter was a member of 'an opposition group'.

This man makes an interesting point. The bullet never exited through her back and the crowd caught the shooter. This seems to indicate it was a handgun round, not a sniper.

Watching the video of neda’s death is incredibly difficult. For his non-response, Barak Obama is a piece of crap. The only thing that comforts me is knowing that neda is in a better place. God Bless and keep her. Mankind has fallen so far. We are failed. Animals, whom are better than us, deserve to inherit this planet, and we deserve to be replaced. Yes, I know that there are good people too, but as a whole, mankind is absolutely evil.

This 19-min. video raises some questions.
He says she was a meter away from him, but he ran to her.
He says the bullet left no exit wound, but gives the impression she was shot at close range.
He’s a student in England, but doesn’t say why he went to Iran, how long he was there and why he left; it would be helpful to know these things about a man who is both a physician and a writer.
The article says he posted the video, suggesting he owns the camera used, but no indication who was operating it. In the first seconds of the posted video we’ve all seen, he looks deliberately at the person filming his actions.
He indicates there will be repercussions from Iranian authorities, now that he’s been identified, but he doesn’t say how he decided to come forward although he has family in Iran.
The interviewer mainly let him talk, and didn’t ask many questions.

He also told how passers-by then seized an armed Basij militia volunteer who appeared to admit shooting Ms Soltan. Dr Hejazi said he had not slept for three nights following the incident, but he wanted to speak out so that her death was not in vain. He doubted that he would be able to return to Iran after talking openly about Ms Soltan's killing.

He could go back, but they'd shoot him...

How the heck did the doctor get OUT of Iran, afterwards? I wonder why more people don’t TRY to flee!

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Regime prosecutes someone for the shooting, even someone innocent -to defray the blame.

Thanks for posting this article and video link.

It was very informative, and helps give the viewer a better perspective on the Iranian people who are protesting.

Dr Arash Hejazi answered the reporters questions with complete candor.

And he made plenty of good points.
