Kurdish civilians Fardin Advaei and Akram (Mohammad) Advaei were summoned to the Marivan Public and Revolutionary Prosecutor’s Office and sent to prison to serve their sentences on 19 June.
An Islamic Revolutionary Court had sentenced Fardin Advaei and Akram Advaei to six months and five months in prison, respectively.
It had charged them with “acting against national security” through membership in a Kurdish opposition party.
Security forces detained the two civilians in January 2021. They were released on bail after more than two months of interrogation in the detention centre of the Ministry of Intelligence in Marivan, Kurdistan province.
The two Kurdish civilians were also detained in 2017 and 2018 on similar charges.
