Hedi Shadikhah, a resident of Oshnavieh, has been sentenced to 1 year and 10 months in prison by Branch 101 of the Oshnavieh Criminal Court (Second Division).
According to Kolbarnews, Hedi Shadikhah was convicted on charges of “collaborating with an opposition group to the regime.” The sentence was issued by Branch 101 of the Oshnavieh Criminal Court.
He had previously been released from Oshnavieh Prison on bail on February 18, 2025, after being arrested by security forces on December 31, 2024.
Hedi Shadikhah, a citizen residing in Oshnavieh, has a history of prior arrests and judicial encounters related to her activities.
Although, under Article 302 of Iran’s Criminal Procedure Code, cases involving charges such as “collaboration with opposition groups” fall under the jurisdiction of the Revolutionary Court, in some smaller towns these cases are handled by criminal courts due to the absence or limited capacity of Revolutionary Courts. While this practice is technically inconsistent with the law, it has become common in practice due to the lack of specialized judicial institutions in such areas.
