The majority of the Baha’is were detained in May.
Civil servants did not comment about this matter.
Baha’is have been persecuted severely by Iran since decades ago.

A curious answer, Velvet. It’s normal they are “puppets of Israel” and “enemies of the Islamic Republic”, considering the animadversion Iranian regime has for them, just because they are not Muslims.
But what is more curious for me is that quality that some individuals have for considering they know what other people think: “all of Iranian people”… Has he any statistics? Has he done any kind of study about this? I guess not.
