Emced Amini, the father of Jina Amini, the young Kurdish girl who was beaten and killed while in the Iranian state’s “morality” police custody on 16 September 2022, shared a message on his Instagram page about a decision by an Iranian court.

Amini said that a lawsuit was filed against him at the Saqiz Revolutionary Court on Friday, 24 January, on charges of “propaganda against the state” and “spreading false news.”

Amini stated that he was summoned to the courthouse and a detention order was issued for him, and that he will remain in custody until the trial.

It was learned that the decision regarding Emced Amini was made because of the message he published to protest the death sentence against Pakshan Azizi.
