HRANA – The prison sentence of Mohammad Aein Moayed Mohseni, a 19-year-old detainee from the January 2026 protests, has been reduced to two years by the Tehran Province Court of Appeals. He had previously been sentenced to five years in prison by Branch 29 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court at the trial stage.

According to HRANA, Mohammad Aein Moayed Mohseni has been sentenced to prison.

According to a ruling issued by Branch 21 of the Tehran Province Court of Appeals, Mr. Moayed Mohseni was sentenced to two years in prison on the charge of assembly and collusion against national security.

Reza Salehiyeh, an attorney and human rights activist, stated that in this case, printing a number of small leaflets using a standard home printer was considered evidence supporting the charge of “assembly and collusion against national security” against Mohammad.

The indictment against him was issued two days after his arrest, on January 5, 2026, by Branch 2 of the Tehran Public and Revolutionary Prosecutor’s Office. He was subsequently tried by Branch 29 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court, presided over by Judge Seyed-Ali Mazloum, and in the initial ruling was sentenced to five years in prison.

Mr. Moayed Mohseni was arrested by security forces on January 3, 2026, in Tehran. He was released from Greater Tehran Penitentiary in late March 2026 after posting bail.

HRANA News Agency – Manouchehr Mehman-Navaz, a political prisoner who had been serving his sentence in an open prison arrangement, was arrested 16 days ago and transferred to Khurin Prison in Varamin.

Based on information received by HRANA, Mr. Mehman-Navaz, who had been serving his sentence outside of prison under an open prison system, was arrested at his private residence on Wednesday, April 16, and transferred to Khurin Prison in Varamin.

He had previously been released from Ghezel Hesar Prison in Karaj under the same open prison arrangement on November 19, 2023.

Mehman-Navaz was sentenced to five years in prison by Branch 29 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court, presided over by Judge Seyed Ali Mazloum, on charges of “assembly and collusion against internal national security” and “disrupting public order and security through causing commotion and unrest.”

In 2022, he had been sentenced to death by Branch 28 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court, presided over by Judge Mohammadreza Amouzad. However, that sentence was overturned following testimony from eyewitnesses. After submitting a request for a retrial, his case was re-examined in Branch 29 of the court.

This political prisoner was arrested during the 2022 nationwide protests and was tried in Branch 28 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court in November of that year.

The charges against him included arson of buildings with the intent to confront the Islamic government—an offense classified as moharebeh (waging war against God)—as well as “assembly and collusion against internal national security,” “disrupting public order and security through creating commotion and unrest,” and “participating in unlawful gatherings.”
