Details of the violent arrest and threats against Sepideh Qolyan and her brother from the father of the civil activist

Sepideh Gholian's father, an Iranian civil activist, says that agents from the Islamic Republic's Ministry of Intelligence arrested Sepideh Gholian and her brother with great violence and said that she would never see them again.

Sepideh Qolyan's father explained in an interview with Masih Alinejad that intelligence agents from the Ministry of Intelligence in the city of Shush entered the house without a warrant and were severely beaten when Sepideh's father and brother tried to prevent them from entering.

According to him, the officers severely beat Sepideh's brother, who is diabetic, and took him away in handcuffs and shackles into the trunk of a car. They also injured Sepideh's mother's throat when she tried to scream for help from neighbors.

Sepideh Qolyan, who was arrested along with protesting sugarcane workers in Haft Tappeh, was released on bail of 500 million Tomans, but recently made public on social media about the torture she and Esmaeil Bakhshi suffered during their detention and protested against the broadcast of forced confessions by the Islamic Republic Radio and Television.

According to the father of this civil activist, Sepideh Qolyan is still suffering from the effects of the torture during her recent arrest, and given the repeated threats by the agents to kill her, the family is extremely concerned about her health.
