Hengaw: Wednesday, February 22, 2023

Mohammad Faraji, Afshin Rasouli, and Reza Mohammadreza, three Kurdish citizens from Bukan, were taken to an unknown location by the forces of the Iranian government after being kidnapped.

According to the report received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, on February 21, 2023, 20-year-old Mohammad Faraji, 27-year-old Afshin Rasouli, and 20-year-old Reza Mohammadreza from Bukan were kidnapped by the Iranian security forces and taken to an unknown location.

Informed sources told Hengaw that the Iranian Intelligence forces from Urmia, acting as ordinary customers, contacted Mohammad Faraji and requested that, as a car mechanic, he come to their desired place to repair a car, and this citizen immediately went there and was kidnapped by these forces.

Mohammad Faraji was kidnapped earlier on Saturday, January 14, 2023, by the Iranian intelligence forces in Bukan and was taken to an unknown location. He was released from the detention center of this organization last week.

Also, Afshin Rasouli and Reza Mohammadreza, two other Kurdish citizens from Bukan, were kidnapped by the Iranian government forces at the same time as Mr. Faraji in the Mirabad neighborhood and taken to an unknown location.

So far, the follow-up with the family and relatives of these three citizens has not been fruitful, and no information about their fate has been made available.
