Pezhman Fatehi (October 23,1952 in Kamyaran; died January 9, 1981) was a Kurdish political prisoner. He died after being sentenced to a capital punishment sentence at Qezelhesar prison, where he was incarcerated. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) reported that they apprehended him and three other individuals – Mohsen Mazloum, Vafa Azarbar, and Mohammad Faramarzi – in the Sumar and Baradost regions of Urmia province. Noor News, the official statement outlet of the Supreme National Security Council of the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the statement of the security police forces on July 23, 2023, published two contradictory reports on the arrest of a team linked to Israel's intelligence agency, Mossad, but offered no further specifics about the identities of the detainees. Additionally, the Iranian authorities announced to have arrested ten people in Urmia province.^[1] In a prior statement issued in June 2023, the Ministry reported the dismantling of a terrorist cell in Isfahan with ties to Israel's Mossad intelligence agency. Subsequent investigations revealed the detainees of the Urmia province to be members of the Komala Party of Iranian Kurdistan, allegedly plotting an attack in Isfahan. In addition to the four prisoners mentioned earlier,^{[1][2][3][4][5]} Reza Rasaei and Mujahid Koorkouri are also in danger of being executed.^[6][7]
