HRANA – On the evening of Tuesday, October 7, Hossein Gardeshi and Mohsen Gardeshi, two brothers residing in Bukan, were arrested by agents of the Ministry of Intelligence and taken to an undisclosed location.

Based on information obtained by HRANA, on the evening of October 7, intelligence agents arrested Mohsen Gardeshi at his home. His brother, Hossein Gardeshi, was also arrested the same day at his workplace by the same security agency.

A source close to the family confirmed the arrests, telling HRANA that following the brothers’ detention, agents searched their residence and confiscated several personal and electronic items, including their mobile phones and laptops.

The family’s inquiries with judicial and security authorities regarding the brothers’ fate have so far yielded no results, and their continued incommunicado detention has heightened concerns among relatives and friends.

As of this report’s publication, no information is available about the reasons for the arrests or the charges brought against the two brothers.

Hossein Gardeshi had previously been arrested and prosecuted for his activities. In 2020, he was sentenced to imprisonment and a fine on charges of “membership in groups opposed to the regime.” His case was closed after he served his sentence and paid the fine.
