Kurdistan: Uncertainty surrounding the custodial status of a Kurdish civilian after a month in detention

Despite almost a month since the arrest, Abdollah Ajir, from the village of "Sarv Kani" in the Piranshar (Piranshahr), precise information regarding his custodial status and whereabouts remains unavailable.

According to an informed source, this Kurdish individual has been denied access to legal counsel and family visits during the entire detention period. The efforts made by Abdollah Ajir's family to inquire information about his fate have thus far been unsuccessful.

He was detained on March 15, 2025, without a judicial warrant, at his workplace by the Iranian security forces and was transferred to an undisclosed location.

During the arrest security forces seized some of his personal belongings.

Abdollah Ajir, 45 years old, married and father of three children.

To date, no precise information regarding the reasons for his detention or the charges brought against him has been disclosed.
