Iranian journalist and activist, Isa Saharkhiz and his son, Mehdi Saharkhiz  have filled the lawsuit in a U.S. Federal Court against Nokia Siemens Networks  and its parent companies Siemens and Nokia alleging human rights violations  committed by the Iranian government through the aid of spying centers which were  provided by Nokia Siemens Networks. Isa Saharkhiz was arrested last June, which the lawyers claim was the result  of the surveillance and monitoring of his mobile phone communications in the  aftermath of disputed 2009 presidential election in Iran.
