Arrest of a Christian citizen in Parsabad, Moghan
A Christian citizen has been arrested in Pars Abad, Moghan County by the city's Intelligence and Security Police.
According to HRANA news agency, citing Aran Moghan, a citizen was arrested by the intelligence and security police of the city for preaching Christianity in Pars Aban Moghan.
According to this report, this individual is accused of promoting and propagating Christianity, disturbing public opinion, and distorting public opinion in the public and virtual space.
The report does not mention the identity of the detained citizen.
It is worth noting that despite the fact that Christians are recognized as a religious minority by law, the security services follow the issue of Muslims converting to Christianity with particular sensitivity and deal with activists in this field with force.
The treatment of Christian converts in Iran is taking place despite the fact that, according to Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Article 18 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, everyone has the right to freedom of religion and to change their religion with conviction, as well as the freedom to manifest it, individually or in community with others and in public or private.
