Seyed Farhad Zlnuri and Seyed Fariborz Shah Ebrahimi, Yarsan adherents and civil activists, were detained in Sahneh city, Kermanshah province, over 50 days ago. They haven't had contact with their family members thus far.
 

According to a report received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, Seyed Farhad Zlnuri and Seyed Fariborz Shah Ebrahimi, two well-known Yarsan religious adherents from Sahneh city who were detained 47 days ago, are still in Kermanshah's Dizel Abad prison. They are denied their individual rights, which include family visits, reaching attorneys, and even making phone calls with family members.
 

Despite the fact that their families and their chosen attorneys have not been able to obtain any details of their case, a source close to these families has informed them that the security agencies have accused these two activists of taking part in the murder through protest speeches at the anniversary of Seyed Khalil Alinezhad 's death.
 

The Intelligence Department's forces violently detained these two Yarsan activists on May 23, 2023, in their private homes without providing an arrest warrant. These two activists were detained after the judge assigned to their case was replaced, and the new judge invalidated the order of their release on bail.
 

It should be mentioned that these two activists were detained by government forces on Friday, November 18, 2022, along with over 20 other people, during the commemoration of the 21st anniversary of Seyed Khalil Alinezhad 's assassination. They were then temporarily released on bail.
