The ACLJ's "Tweet for Youcef" campaign http://aclj.org/nadarkhani , which launched in January, is pressing for the release of Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, who marked 1,000 days in prison on July 8, according to an online report by the National Religious Broadcasters association (NRB).

The ACLJ argues that Nadarkhani has been illegally imprisoned and says increased international pressure for the pastor's immediate and unconditional release is more important now than ever.

"He is still alive today because of international pressure on Iran - people worldwide raising their voices, demanding that his life be spared," the group told campaign supporters. "We need to keep that pressure on.". . .
