Younes Hassankhan, a resident of Ebrahimabad village in Bukan County, was violently arrested by Ministry of Intelligence forces this afternoon and taken to an undisclosed location. Several hours after his arrest, there is still no information regarding his condition, whereabouts, or fate.
According to Kolbarnews, on the afternoon of Tuesday, 21 July 2026, a number of Ministry of Intelligence agents arrived in several vehicles at the Alashin area of Bukan, in the farmlands between the villages of Ebrahimabad and Rahim Khan. They arrested Younes Hassankhan, also known as “Younes Haji Taha,” while he was irrigating his farmland. The agents reportedly beat him before arresting him without presenting a judicial warrant and transferred him to an undisclosed location.
According to information obtained, the security forces have so far provided no explanation regarding the reason for the arrest of the Kurdish citizen, and his situation remains unclear.
Since his arrest, Younes Hassankhan has been denied contact with his family, and he has not been granted access to legal counsel. This has heightened the concerns of his family and relatives regarding his health and his place of detention.
