Mahabad; Arbitrary Arrest of Mostafa Ebrahimi and Transfer to an Undisclosed Location

July 8, 2026; Last night, a Kurdish citizen from Mahabad identified as “Mostafa Ebrahimi” was arbitrarily arrested by security forces and transferred to an undisclosed location.

An informed source confirmed the details to Kurdpa, stating: On the evening of Tuesday, July 7, 2026, Mostafa Ebrahimi—son of Zahra and Mohammad—was arrested after a large number of security forces raided his home without presenting a judicial warrant. He was subsequently transferred to an unknown location.

To date, no information has been made available regarding the reasons for his arrest, and security agencies have provided no official explanation concerning his case. His fate remains entirely unknown. Mostafa Ebrahimi, 40, is married and a resident of Mahabad.

Under the system of suppression and arbitrary detentions in the Islamic Republic of Iran, denying detainees access to legal counsel, family visitations, and telephone calls has become standard practice. Those held in undisclosed locations are stripped entirely of these fundamental rights.
