The detention orders of three Kurdish civilians, Faryad Hajizadeh, Azhdar Doudkanlou Milan and Zabet Valilou Ghezelbash, who are currently being held in Salmas Prison in West Azerbaijan Province, have been extended for another month, the Kurdistan Human Rights Network (KHRN) has learned.
Hajizadeh and Doudkanlou Milan were arrested in Salmas, while Valilou Ghezelbash was arrested in the village of Gwezak, also in Salmas, by agents of the Intelligence Organisation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and taken to this military-security agency’s detention facility in the city.
The three detainees were held for 10 days in a security detention centre, where they were interrogated and denied the right to contact family members or consult with legal counsel.
At the end of their interrogation, the three individuals were transferred to Salmas Prison under temporary detention orders, which have now been extended for another month.
