HRANA – Amin Dehestani, a blogger residing in Khorramabad, was arrested yesterday in the city by security forces and transferred to the IRGC Intelligence detention facility.
Based on information received by HRANA, Mr. Dehestani was arrested on Wednesday, September 3, 2025, at his workplace, a drug rehabilitation center, by IRGC Intelligence agents. He was then transferred to the detention facility of this security institution in Khorramabad.
As of the time of this report, no information is available regarding the charges against this citizen.
Amin Dehestani, a 46-year-old blogger from Khorramabad, is the father of one child. He had previously published posts criticizing public services and addressing citizens’ problems.
Arbitrary arrests, transferring detainees to undisclosed locations, and leaving families in the dark about the fate of their loved ones are routine practices of the Iranian regime’s security agencies, such as the Ministry of Intelligence and the IRGC Intelligence Unit. This pattern of behavior stands in clear violation of the United Nations Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners, known as the Nelson Mandela Rules.
