Hengaw – Sunday, December 28, 2025

Rasoul Yadiyar, a Kurdish man from Bukan, has been subjected to severe physical torture since his arrest by security forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran. His family is facing threats and pressure to remain silent about his condition.

According to information received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, despite 12 days having passed since his arrest, Yadiyar, from Gok Tepe village near Bukan, remains in legal limbo and is being held under harsh conditions in an Intelligence detention center.

A source close to the Yadiyar family told Hengaw that he has been subjected to intense torture and violent interrogation, resulting in multiple serious injuries, including broken ribs, nasal fractures, hand injuries, fractured teeth, and damage to his jaw and face.

Due to the deterioration of his health, Yadiyar was briefly transferred to the medical unit of the Intelligence detention facility; however, despite his critical condition, he was returned to custody without receiving adequate medical treatment.

At the same time, his family has been subjected to intimidation by security agencies and explicitly warned not to speak publicly about his detention or torture.

Rasoul Yadiyar was arrested on Tuesday, December 16, 2025, at approximately 6 p.m., at his workplace in Bukan. He was detained without a court warrant and without being informed of any charges and has since been held incommunicado.
