Amir Hossein Rahimi, a 15-year-old teenager in prison or a correctional center

According to popular reports, 15-year-old Amir Hossein Rahimi, who was arrested during the protests, has been in prison for two months.

Amir Hossein Rahimi was arrested by security forces in Fardis during nationwide protests. According to popular reports, Amir Hossein was held in the Revolutionary Guards Intelligence Prison for two months and was denied treatment due to the number of bullets in his head and neck. He sought medical attention after his release. Amir Hossein had been in prison for 15 years. After his release, Amir Hossein's family reported the presence of bullets in his head and neck.

But the contradictory news published by state-run news agencies suggests otherwise. The General Prosecutor's Office of Alborz Province announced that the defendant "Amir Hossein Rahimi" did not mention being injured or having a bullet in his body in any of his statements, either to the bailiff or to the judicial officer at the prosecutor's office. How is it possible that security forces shot a person with a bullet and wounded him (in the head and neck area, which is clearly visible), but did not see these wounds themselves and announced that Amir Hossein did not make any statement about being injured? 

Also, the Public Relations and Communications Department of the General Justice Department of Alborz Province announced: Amir Hossein Rahimi was arrested by a justice officer at the scene of the riots in Fardis while carrying a Molotov cocktail and was transferred to the Shahid Kachhui Correctional Center, and the rumor that he was going to prison is not true.

The point is, a government that uses Basij forces, plainclothes, and even some teenagers to suppress people and shoots them at close range regardless of their age, how can it send a disciplinary force and a correctional and rehabilitative force to the streets separately for children among the protesters? How can forces that have not hesitated to kill these same children and have even damaged their eyes talk about correctional and rehabilitative efforts and say that we are sending Amir Hussein and his like to a correctional and rehabilitative center, not to prison?

Unfortunately, the Islamic Republic government wants to cover up a previous lie by telling one lie, unaware that such behavior further exposes its own crimes.
