Political prisoner Mosayeb Raisi Yeganeh is suffering from poor health, yet his request for medical evaluation due to his inability to endure imprisonment has not been referred to forensic medicine due to the intervention of judicial authorities.

A source close to the family confirmed the news to HRANA, stating: “Mr. Raisi Yeganeh is suffering from multiple health issues, and despite his request for an assessment of his inability to endure imprisonment, the case has not been referred to forensic medicine due to interference by judicial authorities.”

The source mentioned that Raisi Yeganeh suffers from hand tremors, shortness of breath, and worsening psychological issues. The source added, “Mosayeb has also been deprived of proper medical care in prison.”

Yeganeh was arrested by security forces at his home in Tehran on April 17, 2023, and transferred to Evin Prison.

In December last year, Branch 26 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court, presided over by Judge Iman Afshari, sentenced him to a total of 23 years and 8 months in prison. According to HRANA’s information, 7 years of this sentence has been confirmed.

Having a history of mental health issues, Raisi Yeganeh attempted suicide on March 7, 2024, by ingesting pills and was transferred to Loghman Hospital. Despite not completing his treatment, he was returned to Evin Prison.

Raisi Yeganeh, aged around 41, has previously been arrested and imprisoned for his activism.
