The Ministry of Information announced that 13 people have been arrested on charges of espionage.
According to the Ministry of Information, in a statement, 13 people have been detained on charges of espionage in the provinces of Tehran, Isfahan, Yazd, West Azerbaijan, and Golestan.
Although combating espionage is not considered a violation of human rights, considering Iran’s government’s history of using this accusation as a tool to deal with political opponents, especially with the lack of clarity in the details and the judicial process, such claims are always viewed with skepticism.
