Sonqor; 31 Days of Arbitrary Detention and Absolute Lack of Information Regarding the Fate of Mahdi Bagheri/ His Life and Fate are in Serious Danger

February 6, 2026; Following 31 days since the arbitrary detention of “Mahdi Bagheri,” a Kurdish citizen from “Sonqor and Kolyai” in “Kermanshah” province, there is still no information regarding his fate or place of detention, and concerns regarding his physical well-being and fate have intensified significantly.

“Mahdi Bagheri” was arrested as a protester on January 5, 2026, on “Taleghani” Street in “Kermanshah” by security forces without the presentation of a judicial warrant and was transferred to an unknown location.

During his 31 days of arbitrary detention, this Kurdish citizen has been completely deprived of the right to access a lawyer, make phone calls, or meet with his family. The continuation of this absolute lack of information has escalated serious concerns regarding his life and fate among his family and relatives.
