Security forces have also transferred injured protesters from the hospital to prison and are investigating to find out the identities of protesters who were treated in the Namazi and Faqihi hospitals for future arrests.

Hundreds of protesters were arrested in Shiraz especially after November 19. The city was the scene of intense clashes and protests during the past few days.
