Forty-six days after Musa Dehvari, a member of the “Popular Fighters Front”, was killed during clashes in the Bakhshan area of Saravan, his body has still not been returned to his family. According to reports received by Shiwar News, the family has been asked to pay 10 billion tomans for the return of the Baloch man's body.
The deceased has been identified as Musa Dehvari, approximately 23 years old, son of Shirmohammad, married with a child, and a resident of Saravan.
He was killed on Saturday, 12 September 2026 (21 Shahrivar 1405), during armed clashes between members of the Popular Fighters Front and the military and security forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the Bakhshan area of Saravan.
According to information received, more than a month and a half after the incident, Dehvari's family is still waiting for his body to be returned. The reported demand for 10 billion tomans has created an additional obstacle to holding his funeral and burial.
The situation continues while Dehvari's father is reportedly suffering from heart disease and is in poor physical health.
The prolonged uncertainty, together with the family's inability to receive his body and hold a burial ceremony, has placed additional emotional strain on his relatives, particularly his ailing father.
If confirmed, withholding the bodies of those killed from their families and making their return conditional on the payment of large sums of money would constitute a serious violation of the rights of surviving relatives and the principles of human dignity.
Regardless of the deceased person's political or organisational affiliation, their family has the right to be informed of the fate and whereabouts of their loved one's remains and to be able to arrange a burial in accordance with their beliefs and traditions.
