Two members of Iran’s Baha’i community, Kourosh Sharifzadeh and Foad Misaghian, living in the city of Karaj, west of Tehran, have been arrested and transferred to an unknown location.
Shortly before their arrest, they were summoned to the regime’s so-called government department of punishment and their stores were sealed.
The Iranian regime has launched a dramatic increase in arresting Bahai’is across the country, especially in the city of Shiraz.
