ICC Note:

Iran has arrested at least 25 Christians in Kerman, Iran for unknown reasons. Iranian security forces broke into the Christians’ homes, searched them, and took various objects before arresting the Christians. Officials have not released the reason for the arrest nor where the Christians have been transferred. Without knowing where the Christians are being held, it is impossible to monitor their condition and ensure they are well treated. This is a very dangerous situation.   

 

09/29/2016 Iran (NCRI News) – security forces arrested at least 25 Christians in Southern City of Kerman and transferred them to an unknown location.

The human rights websites in Iran reported, security guards, raided the homes of Christian citizens, searched the houses and confiscated the belongings and at least 25 people were arrested.
