Mehran Khani, born in 2002 and a student of Sports Sciences at the North Tehran branch of Islamic Azad University, has been detained by security forces [1].

Simultaneously, Aryan Hosseini, another student of Sports Sciences at the same university, has also been detained and transferred to Fashafouyeh Detention Center along with Mehran Khani [1]. However, so far, no precise information has been published regarding the legal status, potential charges, or the possibility of these two students accessing a lawyer [1].
