A Kurdish civilian named Ebrahim Tari-Moradi has been sentenced to one year in prison and payment of a nearly 1,200 USD fine.

Branch 1 of the Islamic Revolutionary Court of Sanandaj, in Iran’s northwestern province of Kurdistan, presided over by Judge Saeidi, charged the civilian with “propaganda against the state” and “membership in the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan (KDPI)”.

The Sanandaj court officially informed Tari-Moradi of the sentence on 9 February.

On 24 July 2021, security forces arrested Tari-Moradi, who comes from the Amrowleh village in Sanandaj, at his home in Sanandaj.

They took him to the detention centre of the Ministry of Intelligence in Sanandaj.

On 26 September 2021, after two months in detention, the civilian was released on a bail of 200 million Iranian Tomans – nearly 8,000 USD – from the Sanandaj Central Prison.
