According to a report received by the Hengaw Organisation for Human Rights, Branch 101 of the Bukan Criminal Court sentenced Hashem Saedi, a Sanandaj resident and father of Sarina Saedi, to six and a half months in prison and forty lashes on the charge of "disturbing public order".
On July 3, 2023, the stated verdict was formally delivered to Hashem Saedi.
While returning from the commemoration ceremony for the victims of the popular resistance in the cities of Saqqez and Bukan on the evening of Friday, June 9, 2023, Hashem Saedi was detained by the government forces and taken to the central prison of Bukan along with a group of families of the victims of the popular resistance in Sanandaj, Divandarreh, and Dehgolan.
