Based on news from informed sources, one of the former members of the Baha’i Khademin (“Servants”) Committee of Tehran’s District 7, named Shahram Najaf Tomarai, has been arrested by security agents and transferred to Evin Prison.
This informed source added: “Security agents came to this Baha’i citizen’s home early in the morning and enticed him to leave his home by telling him they had hit his parked car and were going to pay him for the damages. As soon as he left his home, they transferred him to Evin Prison, and there has been no news of him until now.”
