Naser Nord Goltepe, who was also arrested on the same date and transferred to Evin Prison, is still being held in this prison.

On Thursday, February 7, 2025, Naser Navard Gol-Tapeh, a Christian convert, and Joseph Shahbazian, an Armenian citizen residing in Tehran, were arrested by agents of the Ministry of Intelligence and transferred to Evin Prison for judicial proceedings. Reports indicate that Ministry of Intelligence agents raided the homes of Naser Navard Gol-Tapeh and Joseph Shahbazian, leading to the arrest of these two Christian citizens.

It is also reported that Naser Navard Gol-Tapeh is on a hunger strike.

It is noteworthy that on January 25, 2022, his case was referred to Branch 9 of the Supreme Court for the application of Article 477 for retrial. In March 2022, after the request was denied, the notification was sent by Iman Afshari to the defense lawyer of this Christian convert. However, on October 17, 2022, Naser Navard Gol-Tapeh was released.

Additionally, on September 14, 2020, the request for retrial of this Christian convert's case was rejected after being referred to Branch 33 of the Supreme Court.

On August 13, 2020, Branch 33 of the Supreme Court was referred to, and after a hearing, the Supreme Court refused to accept the retrial request, citing that it did not comply with any of the seven clauses of Article 474 of the Criminal Procedure Code.

Naser Navard Gol-Tapeh, along with three Azerbaijani citizens, was arrested at a private gathering on June 24, 2016.

Naser Navard Gol-Tapeh and the three arrested Christians were interrogated in solitary confinement in Evin Prison for two months and were eventually charged with assembly and collusion in evangelistic activities.

All the detained individuals were temporarily released from prison after four months of detention and interrogation, each upon posting a bail of 1 billion rials.
