According to a report received by the Hengaw organization for human rights, on May 10th, 2023, Fateh Majidi and Saeed Mohammadi, prominent figures in Baneh, were convicted on charges of "membership in the Komala Party" and "propaganda against the regime" and sentenced to 4 months imprisonment each.
