In an interview with ILNA, his father Mojtaba Derakhshandi said: “we have not been able to have any contacts with him since he was arrested. The entire family has gathered in front of Evin prison multiple times but we were told that we don't have permission to see him.” He expressed concerns about his son's physical health saying: “our only information came from one of the representatives of the revolutionary court who told us last Wednesday that he is being held in section 209 of Evin prison.”
