Colleagues from the Hana Human Rights Organization in Mahabad have reported the arrest of two brothers in this city by security forces.
According to the report, on December 29 and 30, 2024, two brothers, Khaled Bakri and Mohammad Bakri, residents of Mahabad, were detained without the presentation of any judicial warrants.
• Khaled Bakri, 46 years old, married, and a father, was arrested on the Sardasht-Mahabad road.
• Mohammad Bakri, 43 years old, married, and also a father, was detained in the Mahabad marketplace.
Both arrests were carried out by security forces without presenting legal documents.
According to Hana’s sources, the two brothers were transferred to the Mahabad Intelligence Office for interrogation following their arrest.
In a conversation with Hana, Fouad Bakri, the brothers’ sibling, stated:
“Despite my mother’s efforts to inquire about the fate and condition of my brothers through security agencies in Mahabad, her attempts have been fruitless, and officials have refused to provide any answers.”
