Head of Tehran girls’ rehab center arrested after opposing IRGC takeover

Mar 21, 2026, 20:04 GMT+0

The head of a Tehran rehabilitation center for orphaned girls with disabilities was arrested after objecting to a demand by IRGC forces to house 50 of their personnel at the facility, informed sources told Iran International.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps forces sought to take over part of the Hamdaman rehabilitation institute. The head of the center objected to the request but was assaulted by the officers and subsequently detained, the sources said.

The director's whereabouts and condition remain unknown.
