Mehdi Jafari, a young Kurdish man from Dargaz and a resident of Mashhad, remains in an unknown situation after 34 days since his arrest, and no information has been published about his place of detention or the status of his case. Because he was living alone in Mashhad, no one has consistently followed up on his situation.
According to Kolbarnews on Friday, January 9, 2026, Mehdi Jafari was arrested in Mashhad by security forces without the presentation of a judicial warrant and transferred to an undisclosed location. Since his arrest, no official information has been made available regarding the possible charges against him, his place of detention, or the judicial process of his case.
According to received information, this Kurdish citizen has been deprived of the right to access a lawyer, make phone calls, and have visits with family or relatives throughout his detention. The continuation of this lack of information has increased concerns about his physical condition and legal status.
Mehdi Jafari is a Kurdish Kurmanj from Dargaz in Razavi Khorasan Province who had been residing in Mashhad. The absence of a support network and effective legal follow-up has placed his situation in an ambiguous and concerning condition.
