On August 16, security forces arrested Abdollah Ansari, Karim Esmailzadeh, and Mehdi Nasirzadeh in Tabriz and transferred them to an undisclosed location.

According to a source, the arrests transpired near a sports stadium where the trio was en route to witness a soccer match.

“Each of them has been granted a 900-million-Toman (approximately 18000 dollars) bail,” the source added.

As of now, the rationale behind their apprehensions, the specific detention site, and the precise allegations leveled against them remain veiled in uncertainty.
