Kurdish civil rights activists Salah Hossein-Panah and Hoshyar Shaabani have been released on bail from Baneh Prison in Iran’s northwestern Kurdistan province.
On 13 November, the environmental activist Hossein-Panah was released from Baneh Prison on a bail of 100 million Iranian Tomans – nearly 4,000 USD – after a month and a half of detention.
The intelligence ministry forces had arrested him on 22 September in Baneh.
Separately, Shaabani, who was arrested on 29 August, was temporarily released on 14 November.
During his detention in the detention facility of the intelligence ministry in Baneh, the activist was taken to Salahuddin Ayoubi Hospital in Baneh due to a bleeding stomach and was hospitalised for three days.
The activists were interrogated during this period in the detention centre of the intelligence ministry in Baneh without the right to have family visits and a lawyer.
In recent days, they were transferred to the city prison after the end of their interrogation period.
