<<Baha'i Mother and Sons Sentenced to Jail in Iran
A revolutionary court in the Iranian city of Bojnurd has sentenced a Baha'i family to a combined total of four years and eight months in prison, a human rights website reported. Shayan Senaei has been sentenced to a two-year and two-month prison term, along with a 50 million tomans ($1,000) fine. His brother, Faran Senaei, received a two-year and six-month prison sentence, while their mother, Sholeh Shahidi, has also been fined 50 million tomans, as reported by HRANA. The court also mandated a 10-year ban from using specific social public services and the confiscation of personal assets owned by the individuals. Charges against the three included <engaging in educational activities and propaganda against Islamic Sharia law.> Activities such as posting to social media were given as evidence for the charges. The Baha'i citizens were detained at their home in Bojnurd by security forces on July 13, 2022, and subsequently released on bail on August 4, 2022. The Islamic Republic has intensified its crackdown on members of the Baha'i faith, imprisoning dozens of them on spurious charges over the past year, denying them access to higher education and livelihoods, and confiscating or destroying their personal properties.>>

<<University Crackdown: New Wave of Student, Academic Arrests in Iran
The Iranian authorities have escalated their crackdown on dissent at universities in recent days, arresting and summoning many students and academics across the country. The clampdown does not spare Iranian students studying abroad, with reports saying that those who return home are being pressured by security agencies and facing legal cases. The confiscation of passports, detention and repeated interrogations are among the tactics used against the students. Mohammed Shebahati, a Tehran University anthropology student, was beaten and arrested on January 10, exactly one year after his release from previous custody. Shebahati's first arrest related to his participation in nationwide protests that erupted in September 2022. Student union councils denounced his latest incarceration as unjust. A bomb attack in the southeastern city of Kerman on January 3 hit crowds at a memorial ceremony for Qassem Soleimani, a top commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) killed in a US drone strike in Iraq in January 2020. The Sunni extremist group Islamic State (IS) claimed responsibility for the attack that killed nearly 100 people. Criticizing Soleimani or the authorities for failing to provide safety to the Iranian population has resulted in student arrests. Amir Rahpeykar, a student at Isfahan University of Technology, Mehdi Sa'adati from Yaz University of Medical Sciences, Shahin Ghafouri from Qorveh Azad University and Sorena Alipour from Hormozgan University of Medical Sciences were among those jailed on such grounds. Since the country was rocked by months of widespread protests, authorities have been clamping down on any sign of dissent at universities with arrests, intrusive high-tech surveillance, the dismantling of student organizations and purging of professors. Hundreds of students, who have been at the forefront of the protest movement, have been expelled or suspended for participating in demonstrations or refusing to wear the mandatory headscarf.>>

<<Jailed Iranian Man Faced Mock Execution in the Desert
Ramin Qashqaei, 29, was a music teacher, fitness and boxing instructor, and sales manager for a private company in the Iranian city of Qazvin, about 140 kilometers northwest of Tehran. Qashqaei left his house for shopping on the evening of March 12 last yeara when he was detained by officers in plainclothes who were hiding behind a tree and inside a car, a source with knowledge of the matter told IranWire. The armed agents did not show him any arrest warrant. Qashqaei was put in a car and taken to his family home where he was told at gunpoint to ring the bell and pretend to be alone. When he refused, the officers forcefully held his head in front of the doorbell camera. Qashqaei's parents, two young sisters and 90-year-old grandmother were in the house, where the officers ransacked all the furniture while subjecting the family to obscenities. <It was as if they were arresting terrorists. They pushed his sisters and insulted him in front of his 60-year-old father,> the source said. When the agents found an old air rifle in the house, they started threatening the family. <Ramin's father is known in Qazvin for being trustworthy. They had the air rifle of their ancestors, which is an old gun that had been lying in the corner of the house for 30 or 40 years,> the source explained. <It is the custom in the Qashqaei and Bakhtiari clans to keep the grandfathers’ rifles.> Qashqaei was thrown in the officers' car and taken to the detention center of the Qazvin Intelligence Department, where his interrogators tried to coerce him into confessing to having connections with foreign countries and possessing firearms. <For approximately 11 days, they subjected Ramin to a disturbing game. They placed him in the car without uttering a word and then feigned an intent to kill him in the desert and abandon his body,> the source said. <Throughout this harrowing ordeal, they persistently pressured him to divulge information, treating him as though they had arrested a terrorist.> On the 11th day of his detention, Qashqaei protested against his cruel treatment by striking his head against the iron door of his cell. He also initiated a hunger strike on the 26th day of his solitary confinement in Qazvin's Chobindar prison, demanding access to legal representation, a meeting with his family and his relocation to a general ward.
After four days, prison authorities moved him to a multi-person cell where Manochehar Bakhtiari, the father of a 27-year-old man killed in a crackdown on protests in November 2019, was also held. Qashqaei was temporarily released from prison in May 2023 after posting bail amounting to 1.5 billion tomans ($30,000). Subsequently, he was tried in two separate cases and convicted of <propaganda against the Islamic Republic,> <gathering and colluding with the intention of disrupting domestic and foreign security,> and illegal weapon possession. He was handed a total of seven years in prison.>>

<<Tens of People Arrested in Iran over Deadly Bombing Attack
Iranian authorities say they have arrested 35 people in relation to a bombing attack in the southeastern city of Kerman earlier this month that claimed the lives of nearly 100 people. The Intelligence Ministry said on January 11 it had identified one of the two suicide bombers as a national of Tajikistan who entered Iran illegally last month, according to the semi-official Tasnim news agency. Information will be released later about the second suicide bomber, the ministry said, adding that the arrests were carried out in the provinces of Kerman, Sistan and Baluchistan, Khorasan Razavi, Isfahan, Tehran and West Azerbaijan. The two blasts in Kerman on January 3 hit crowds at a memorial ceremony near the tomb for Qassem Soleimani, a top commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) killed in a US drone strike in Iraq in January 2020. The Sunni extremist group Islamic State (IS) claimed responsibility for the attack that killed 91 people, according to state media. Islamic Republic officials have vowed revenge for the bloodiest attack in Iran since the 1979 revolution. The IS group has in the past claimed responsibility for some terrorist attacks in Iran. Soleimani had extensive ties to Iran-backed proxy groups across the Middle East and was seen by Washington as the mastermind behind deadly roadside bombings targeting US soldiers in Iraq.>>

The crackdown on the media in the country is raising alarms about a severe infringement on the free flow of information. This must stop now. All journalists unfairly being held behind bars should be released immediately,> said IFJ General Secretary Anthony Bellanger.

<<Father of Jailed Iranian Student Sentenced to Five Years in Prison
The Tehran Revolutionary Court has sentenced a 71-year-old man to five years in prison over his alleged <financial connection> with the People's Mujahedin Organization of Iran (MEK or PMOI). In April 2022, Mir Yousef Younesi's son Ali, a former astronomy Olympiad student at Sharif University of Technology, was handed a 16-year prison sentence for allegedly being connected to MEK, a group considered a terrorist organization by the Islamic Republic. His other son Reza said on social media on January 9 that his father's prison sentence was issued during a court session his father was not allowed to attend. The court also dismissed the objections raised by the defendant's legal representative regarding the lack of evidence presented by the Ministry of Intelligence, he said, adding that the lawyer was given access to the case documents only two weeks ago. Mir Yousef Younesi had been kept in pre-trial detention for more than a year. His detention was marked by multiple violations of the law and lack of transparency. The family has denied the charges against him, saying that he was only an employee of a company engaged in routine business transactions. <They are well aware that he has no connection to that financial transaction, but they involved him in this case to exert revenge,> Reza Younesi said. He previously disclosed his father's pre-existing hearing issues and pain in one ear, and accused the authorities of preventing him from completing his treatment.
Officials at Tehran's Evin prison have repeatedly reneged on promises to allow Younesi to see a specialist doctor outside the facility. Both ears are now affected, significantly impacting the prisoner’s daily life.>>

<<Kermanshah: Death of Peyman Abdi from Nowsud due to Torture by Security Institutions
Peyman Abdi, a resident of Nowsud in Paveh city, died as a result of torture after being arrested by security agencies in Kermanshah. The security agencies, while threatening Abdi's family with media coverage, claimed his death was due to suffocation. According to a report obtained by Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, on Tuesday, January 9, 2024, Peyman Abdi, 35, from Nowsud district in Paveh city and the father of two children, died in the army hospital. He was arrested last week by the forces of the intelligence department in Kermanshah and went into a coma under torture. A relative of Mr. Abdi informed Hengaw, stating, <On Tuesday, Abdi's family was contacted from 520 Kermanshah Hospital, also known as the Army Hospital, and they were informed that his body is here, ready for collection.> This source further mentioned that the doctors at the army hospital informed Abdi's family that he died due to a severe blow to his head from a hard object. However, the security agencies, pressuring Abdi's family, claimed that Peyman Abdi choked on his food while eating in the detention center, leading to his death. The source, whose identity is protected by Hengaw for security reasons, continued, <Peyman Abdi was arrested on Tuesday, January 2, 2024, by the Kermanshah Intelligence Department forces on one of the city streets. That night, he was subjected to torture and beatings, fell into a coma, and was subsequently transferred to the army hospital.> During the 8 days of Peyman Abdi's detention and coma in the hospital, his family remained uninformed about his condition. They were contacted by the army hospital on Tuesday, where they were informed of his tragic death. Hengaw received information that the security institutions of the Islamic Republic of Iran handed over Peyman Abdi's body to his family on Wednesday, January 10. This occurred after obtaining a written commitment from the Abdi family not to mediate this issue. The security authorities have claimed that the reason for Abdi's arrest was a conflict with officers, but they have not provided additional details. This lack of transparency raises concerns about the nature, legality of his arrest, and subsequent treatment he received. According to statistics recorded in the Statistics and Documentation Center of Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, at least 11 prisoners lost their lives under torture in Iranian prisons in 2023, with 8 of them being Kurdish prisoners.>>
