after the loss of the Iranian soccer team against Qatar on February 7, 2024, people all over Iran, including in the provinces of Kurdistan, Showed their joy and happiness with a large presence in the streets.

The security forces of the Islamic Republic resorted to force against the joy of the people and suppressed them.

This repression was more and severe in the provinces of Kurdistan. On the same night and the next day, ten Kurdish children and young people from Javanrood city, Kermanshah province, were detained and transferred to an unknown place just for expressing happiness over the defeat of the Iranian football team.

Now, after nearly two weeks have passed since the arrest of ten young Kurds, only the identities of four have been established. No one knows the place of detention, the detaining organization and their health status.

16-year-old Mohammad Mahmoudi, 17-year-old Mohammad Yousefi, 17-year-old Diako Behrujeh, 21-year-old Hamza Barzegar are the identities of the four teenagers and children kidnapped by the forces of the Islamic Republic.

According to the reports received by Avatody, the efforts of the families of the arrested persons to determine their fate have not reached anywhere, and the government organizations are not willing to answer them.

With the publication of news and reports of this event by the human rights organizations of Kurdistan and Iran, so far the international human rights organizations have not taken appropriate action in this regard to pressure the Islamic Republic to be accountable.

During an interview with Avatody, one of Kurdistan's human rights activists spoke about the poor behavior and performance of international human rights institutions in relation to gross violations of human rights in the provinces of Kurdistan.

Hawar Kermanshahi, one of the human rights activists living in Iran, told Avatody in this regard: “Unfortunately, although most repressions and killings are carried out in Kurdistan provinces during protests, international human rights organizations pay the least attention to gross human rights violations in Kurdistan of Iran”.

Hawar Kermanshahi added, "This is not only related to international organizations. This fact also applies to Iranian human rights organizations."

He added: "If there were no Kurdish human rights networks, there would be a silence about the situation of the Kurdish detainees."

This human rights activist also said: "I demand that Iranian and international human rights organizations fulfill their duties without racial bias and regardless of the nationality of the victims, and be the forum of the victims of human rights violations."

People's happiness from the loss of the Iranian soccer team

Earlier, Avatody published a detailed report about why people are happy about the loss of the Iranian soccer team. In this report, Jamal Najari, one of the observers of the political affairs of Kurdistan and Iran, said about the reasons for the people's happiness over the loss of the national soccer team: "Since the Islamic Republic came to power, none of the Iranian sports teams have been sympathetic to the people, they have not been side by side with the people, they have left the people alone in front of the government. They remained silent. So it is logical that people should also be happy about the loss of the national soccer team".
