Reza Koshkinezhad, a member of the army, was transferred to Ilam prison.

Reza Koshkinezhad, an army air defense officer, was transferred from Khorramabad Parsilon Prison to Ilam Prison.

Reza Koshkinezhad, a former commander of the Iranian Army's Air Defense Force and a lecturer at Abdanan Azad University, hails from Lorestan. At the beginning of the revolution and popular protests this year, he courageously and authoritatively announced his support for the Iranian people by releasing a video message.

 Reza Koushki says in the video: "These repressions are being carried out by politicians to divide the people so that they do not think about a common goal. Your call, the people of Iran, and your request to us, the army, as your children, to support and protect us, reached the ears of all the army members years ago. As a representative of a large part of the army, I have responded to your call and promise you that the army is by your side because of your heartfelt and genuine request and will not allow any enemy outside these borders or inside to suppress or kill us, and we will deal decisively and severely with any force that raises its hand against our people. Do not doubt that we will stand by you, die, and sacrifice our precious lives for you."

Reza Koshkinezhad was arrested by the Islamic Republic government and transferred to Khorramabad Parsilon Prison after his support for the Iranian people and other statements he had published.

Reza's brother, Mojtaba Koshkinezhad, announced on Twitter a few hours ago that his brother had been transferred from Khorramabad's Parsilon Prison to Ilam Prison. He also admitted that we still have no news of him, but that there are more important issues in the name of homeland.
