Karim Masoudi, Behzad Samadzadeh, Sardar Pourmirzaei, Gholamreza Abdollahzadeh, and Farshad Souri, all detained during the December 2025 nationwide protests and currently held in Urumieh Prison, have received prison sentences in separate rulings issued by the city’s Revolutionary Courts.
According to a report by Kolber News, Branch 3 of the Urumieh Revolutionary Court sentenced Karim Masoudi and Sardar Pourmirzaei to two years of discretionary imprisonment each on the charge of “acting against national security.” Of these sentences, 18 months of Masoudi’s term and 17 months of Pourmirzaei’s term have been suspended.
The same branch sentenced Gholamreza Abdollahzadeh to one year of discretionary imprisonment. Following his decision to waive his right to appeal (Taslim-e be Ray), his sentence was reduced to nine months.
In a separate case, Branch 1 of the Urumieh Revolutionary Court, presided over by Judge Dousti, sentenced Behzad Samadzadeh to two years of discretionary imprisonment on the charge of “acting against national security.” Eighteen months of his sentence have been suspended. Farshad Souri was sentenced by the same branch to one year in prison, which was similarly reduced to nine months after he waived his right to appeal.
