Hamed’s brother, Hood was previously sentenced to three years of prison by the Iranian regime’s judiciary and is currently in ward 8 of Evin Prison.
Hamed Yazerlu was a student activist and although he was accepted in Amir Kabir University to get his PhD, he was banned two years in a row from continuing his studies.
In the past few months, the arrest of family members of the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) has increased. The people, who are trialed on charges of having links to dissident groups, are people with family members in the PMOI.
