He was imprisoned in the notorious Evin prison in Tehran at least until 2002. Three months after his arrest he was allowed to make a phone call to his family, but they have not heard about him since. Security forces and Evin prison officials refuse to publish any information about him.[5][6] In December 2013, the Iran's Women's Freedom Forum published a report including a page about Zeinali's case.[7] Twelve years after his arrest, Roozonline spoke with his mother. She said authorities have kept her silent.[8][9]
