HRANA News Agency – Reyhaneh Darat and her brother Rasoul Darat, two residents of Torbat-e Heydarieh and supporters of the “Yamani” movement, have been arrested by security forces. While Rasoul Darat is currently being held in The Ministry of Intelligence’s detention facility in the city, the whereabouts of Reyhaneh Darat remain unknown.

A source close to the family confirmed the news to HRANA, stating:
“On the evening of Monday, April 28, agents from the Ministry of Intelligence raided a ceremony being held in Torbat-e Heydarieh, Razavi Khorasan province, to mark the birth anniversary of the Prophet Muhammad’s daughter. Around 20 women and girls, all supporters of the Yamani movement, were present. Among them, Reyhaneh Darat was arrested by security forces. Later that night, her family went to the Ministry of Intelligence office to follow up on her case. During this effort, her brother Rasoul Darat was also arrested by Intelligence agents.”

According to HRANA’s findings, Rasoul Darat is currently being held in The Ministry of Intelligence’s detention facility in Torbat-e Heydarieh. However, the location of Reyhaneh Darat, 20, remains unknown, and authorities have refused to provide her family with any information.

Rasoul Darat has previously been arrested and convicted for his religious activities.

In Iran, individuals are routinely detained for making claims of association with the Shi’a messianic figure, the Hidden Twelfth Imam. One such movement, known as the Yamani current and led by Ahmad al-Hasan Yamani, advocates beliefs centered on Mahdism.

The Iranian security establishment—particularly the Ministry of Intelligence—maintains dedicated units focused on monitoring and suppressing religious groups, mystical orders, and ideological movements that fall outside the state’s sanctioned ideological boundaries.
