An Iranian lawyer, Niloufar Sadat Hashemian, was among dozens of Iranian citizens apprehended for commenting on the explosions in Kerman near the burial site of Qasem Soleimani, which left dozens of civilians dead.
Agents of the Judiciary’s Counterintelligence filed a complaint against Niloufar Sadat Hashemian who was arrested by security forces in Semnan, on Saturday, January 6, 2024.
Qasem Soleimani was the commander of the terrorist Quds Force, the extraterritorial branch of the Iranian regime’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in charge of export of terrorism and fundamentalism abroad and formation of the Iranian regime’s proxy groups in the Middle East. He was killed in Iraq on January 3, 2020, in a strike by the U.S.
Niloufar Sadat Hashemian wrote in her personal Instagram account, “When he was alive, he expended the country’s resources on warmongering in the region. Several people lost their lives during his funeral. To avenge him, a passenger airliner was targeted. His statue also brought harm to the country. Now, a significant number of people have lost their lives on the anniversary. What an ominous figure Qasem Soleimani was.”
The individuals taken into custody encompass a range of professionals, including pediatricians and university professors.
