Marivan; Salman Afra was arrested by security forces

On January 24th, Salman Afra, a former political prisoner from the village of "Nei" in Marivan, was arrested by security forces and transferred to an unknown location.

According to an informed source, security forces arrested this 30-year-old citizen without a judicial warrant.

At the time of publication of this news, there is no information available on the reason for the arrest and the charges against Mr. Afra.

In March 2021, this young man from Marivan was arrested by the security forces without a court order, and after a month he was released on bail.

This young Kurdish man was sentenced to five years in prison on the charge of "collaborating with one of the Kurdish opposition parties of the Iranian government" in the primary court, which was changed to one year in prison in the appeals court.
