Saman Sayadee, known as Saman Yasin, is Teymur’s son. He was born in the Kurdish city of Kermanshah in 1372 Iranian Calendar (1993). He is an artist, singer, music composer and graphic designer. He lives in Tehran and belongs to the Yarsa denomination. Most of his work concerns the social and political dissatisfaction. He supports clearly the ongoing protest voice in the country that agrees with his individual artistic attitude.

 He was arrested on 10/7/1401 Iranian Calendar (2/10/2022) by the police forces at his home. He was imprisoned in Evin Prison in Tehran. His family got no information about his fate at the beginning. They found out where he was detained. The prison management denied their request for visiting him.^Saman was denied to have a lawyer.  He was subjected to severe mental and physical torture.

 Abolqasem Salawati, the judge of sector 15 of the Islamic revolution court of Tehran, conducted the court process on 7/8/1401 Iranian Calendar (29/10/2022). According to the website of the Islamic judiciary, these persons were judged at the same process too: Soheil Khoshdel, Manuchehr Mehmannawaz, Mohammad Qobadloo, Mohsen Rezazadeh Qaraqoloo, Saeed Shirazi, Mohammad Borooghni, Abolfazl Mehri and Hossein Hajiloo.

 This show trial accused Saman with allegation “solidarity with gathering of the dissatisfied”, “singing antirevolutionary songs”, “organizing demonstration against security of country”, “fighting god”. He was sentenced to death penalty.

 It is noteworthy that the process took place secretly. No media or even the families of the accused persons were allowed to observe the trial. Only the loyal media to Islamic regime was allowed to attend the court. 

The life of this Kurdish artist is in danger.

It is likely that he will be executed at any time.

Human right activists are appealed to be his voice.

He is innocent.
