Arrest by violence, Mehrdad Bakhtiari

Saba Bakhtiari, the aunt of the late Pouya Bakhtiari, shared on her Instagram that hours ago, over twenty armed agents attacked their home and arrested her brother Mehrdad with violence.

She wrote: "They pointed a gun at my defenseless brother's head, didn't settle for a blindfold wrapped his entire head with a scarf and kidnapped him to an unknown location. My other brother was also brutally beaten in the Revolutionary Court. The usurping regime is determined to take severe revenge on our family freedom fighters, and defenseless people."
