Hengaw: A Kurdish political prisoner from Bukan, who had been arrested for 17 years without the right to leave in Urmia and Yazd prisons, was sent on leave for the first time. 
 
According to the report received by Hengaw Human Rights Organization, on Tuesday, March 15, 2022, Qader Mohammadzadeh, a political prisoner from Bukan, was released from Yazd Central Prison for the first time after 17 years in prison on 1 billion toman bail.
