Human rights reports indicate the continued pressure by the Islamic Republic’s security and judicial institutions on Bahá’í citizens in Iran. According to the HRANA report, security agents, after raiding the home of Parysa Nasseri, a Bahá’í citizen living in Qa’im Shahr, searched her house and confiscated a number of her personal items and digital devices.

At the same time, Iraj Shakoor and Parham Abahyar, two Bahá’í citizens living in Tehran, were detained after being taken to the Tehran Security Prosecutor’s Office and transferred to prison to serve a custodial sentence.

Vothaq Sanaii, one of the spokespersons of the Bahá’í international community, explains the increase in pressure and the suppression of Bahá’í citizens in Iran.
