Even before Evin prison, where Djalali had been sentenced to death for nine years, was attacked by Israel this week, there were plans to move him, according to Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, who founded the Norway-based organization Iran Human Rights (IHR).
After the attack, all prisoners in the prison, including Djalali, were transported to other facilities.
According to the information we have received, he has been moved again to a new, unknown location, says Amiry-Moghaddam to TT.
In Iran, prisoners are often moved from their facility before they are executed. Since the war between Iran and Israel broke out earlier in June, several human rights organizations have warned that Djalali is at increased risk of being executed, as he (in a trial that has been condemned internationally) has been accused of spying on behalf of Israel.
Ahmadreza Djalali's wife Vida Mehrannia writes on X that the move has "filled our family with deep fear and uncertainty about his safety and well-being" and urges all governments and organizations to act to prevent the execution.
Sweden's Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson says to TT on Wednesday that he has spoken with another European prime minister about Djalali, and that he "has been very keen to protect Djalali's interests in a very, very difficult situation".
