Iranian intelligence officials apprehended a bodybuilding champion who had been injured while participating in an anti-government demonstration.

According to a source close to Reza Olfati's family, the Kurdish bodybuilder was detained on October 30 in the western Kermanshah province when security personnel invaded the residence where he was residing.



According to the source, Olfati, a provincial champion, was hurt roughly three weeks ago during a rally in Kermanshah, the province capital.

After recovering from his injuries, he was transferred to his father's residence in Gilangreb and returned to Kermanshah on October 31.

According to the source, Olfati was seized shortly after arriving at the home of one of his pals and is now being held at the Kermanshah Intelligence Department.

Since a 22-year-old Kurdish woman, Mahsa Amini, died in the custody of Tehran's morality police on September 16, Iran has been shaken by turmoil. The generally nonviolent protests have developed to become Iran's regime's most serious threat since the 2009 protest wave.

According to one human rights organization, the disturbance provoked a heavy-handed response in which security personnel shot bullets and tear gas at protestors, killing at least 277 people. According to IranWire, 48 youngsters died. Thousands of individuals were also detained.
