Subject: Request for Investigation into the Whereabouts of My Brother, Houshang Pour Ebrahim
Dear Members of the Committee,
My name is Soghra Pour Ebrahim, and I am the sister of Houshang Pour Ebrahim. My brother, Houshang Pour Ebrahim, was captured by the forces of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (MEK) on October 16, 1987, while serving his mandatory military service in the Baneh region of Kurdistan Province, Iran. Since that time, we have had no information about his fate, whereabouts, or condition.
Over the years, our family has made repeated efforts through various organizations and unofficial channels to obtain any news about him, but no clear answer has ever been received. My mother and I remain waiting and hopeful for his return. Sadly, our father passed away after years of grief and uncertainty over his disappearance.
I respectfully request that the esteemed Committee to use its mandate to investigate the fate and current status of Houshang Pour Ebrahim and to inform our family of any findings.
With sincere gratitude and respect,
Soghra Pour Ebrahim
