HRANA– Danial Moghaddam, a dissident singer, was once again arrested by security forces in Shiraz on Tuesday, July 29, and transferred to the Greater Tehran Prison.

According to HRANA, the news agency of Human Rights Activists in Iran, Danial Moghaddam, a dissident singer, has been re-arrested.

His arrest took place on Tuesday, July 29, in Shiraz, and he was subsequently transferred to Greater Tehran Prison.
During his earlier detention in Evin Prison, Moghaddam released a video on his personal page describing the crisis inside the prison during the Israeli airstrike. In the video, he stated that following the shockwaves and emergency situation caused by the bombing, he unintentionally left the prison while in a disoriented and semi-conscious state and did not return.
