Mohammad Molazahi, the brother of Fariba Molazahi, and Amer Dadafarin, the 18-year-old son of this Baloch activist, were arrested by Iranian government forces in Iranshahr, Sistan, and Baluchistan province, and were taken to an unknown location.
 

According to the report received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, on the evening of Saturday, June 17, 2023, Mohammad Molazahi, 25 years old, and Amer Dadafarin, 18 years old, members of the family of Fariba Molazahi, a well-known Baloch activist, were arrested by Iranian government forces on the way from Tehran to Iranshahr.
 

It is said that Amer Baloch, the son of Fariba Baloch, after returning from England and meeting his mother, along with his uncle and some of their relatives, went to Iranshahr from Tehran, and they were arrested at the entrance of this city.
 

It should be noted that Mohammad Molazahi and Amer Dadafrin were arrested while they did not have any activities related to the human rights activism of Fariba Baloch and this action is only done as a form of psychological pressure on her.
 

Four days have passed since the arrest of these two citizens by Iranian government forces and so far there is no information about their fate, location, and conditions of detention.
