The Judiciary Media Center has announced the confiscation of assets belonging to 52 citizens in Zanjan Province, an action that judicial officials stated was carried out in connection with what has been termed “cooperation with enemy-linked networks.”
According to a report published by the Mizan News Agency, seven of these individuals who resided in Iran have been arrested, while the remaining individuals whose assets were seized are currently living outside the country.
The Chief Justice of Zanjan Province announced that the bank accounts, cash and foreign currency reserves, movable and immovable properties, as well as the gold jewelry of these individuals, have been seized under judicial orders. According to the report, 33 of the asset seizures took place in the city of Zanjan, 15 in Abhar, three in Khorramdarreh, and one case involved an individual with assets in Tehran and Khodabandeh County.
Judicial officials claimed that these measures were carried out within the framework of laws related to “espionage and cooperation with the Zionist regime” and aimed at “safeguarding public rights.” However, the identities of the detained individuals, the exact timing of the arrests, their places of detention, and the specific details of the allegations against them have not been disclosed.
