17th January 2024 - The father of Ali Younesi, Mir Yousef Younesi has been sentenced to five years of imprisonment by the Revolutionary Court of Tehran after more than a year of temporary detention.
His son Ali Younesi is student and political prisoner currently serving a 16 year sentence. The Ministry of Intelligence had accused the father Mir Yousef Younesi of “financial connection with organised groups” but failed to provide evidence. But the judge issued the sentence against Mir Yousef Younesi based on the “reports of the officers,” and rejected the lawyers’ objections.
