Member of Parliament Jim Turnour was one of six members of the Australian House of Representatives to speak in favor of a motion calling on Iran to release seven Baha’is imprisoned in Tehran for the past year without due legal process. “We will maintain close interest in this case and will continue to raise our concerns with the Iranian government,” he said during the discussion on 25 May 2009.
