Alireza Kafaie, born in June 1990, was arrested in Tehran on 4 November 2022. Following interrogation, he was transferred to Rajai Shahr Prison in Karaj with an order for prosecution. He was involved in a case known as the Ekbatan case, along with seven others. On 1 August 2023, he was moved to Ghezel Hesar Prison.

On 14 February 2024, Amir Mohammad Khosh Eghbal, and earlier on 7 February 2024, Alireza Kafaie, were acquitted of the charge of "moharebeh" and released on bail from Ghezel Hesar Prison in Karaj, as determined by the judge of Branch 15 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court.

On 3 November 2024, the first hearing of his charges was held by the judge of Branch 13 of the Criminal Court 1 of Tehran Province. However, during the second hearing on 4 November 2024, Alireza Kafaie and four other defendants in the Ekbatan case, who had previously been released on bail, were re-arrested and returned to prison.

On 22 October 2025, he was released again on bail of 50 billion tomans from Ghezel Hesar Prison in Karaj. This decision was made by Branch 13 of the Tehran Criminal Court.

On 20 May 2026, it was reported by Human Rights in Iran that Alireza Kafaie was recently sentenced to five years of imprisonment by the judge of Branch 13 of the Criminal Court 1 of Tehran Province as part of his judicial case.

Most recently, Branch 15 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court, presided over by Judge Abolqasem Salavati, revised his sentence to seven years in prison, restrictions on online activity, and a ban on residing in Tehran and Alborz provinces. The verdict was communicated orally without the presence or knowledge of the defendants’ lawyers, reportedly making legal follow-up and appeals more difficult.

در تاریخ ۱۲ آبان ماه ۱۴۰۳، جلسه اول دادرسی به اتهامات وی توسط قاضی شعبه ۱۳ دادگاه کیفری۱ استان تهران، برگزار شده بود اما در دومین جلسه دادرسی به این در تاریخ ۱۳ آبان ماه ۱۴۰۳، برگزار شد علیرضا کفایی، چهار تن دیگر از متهمان این پرونده (اکباتان) که پیشتر با تودیع قرار وثیقه آزاد شده بودند، مجددا بازداشت و به زندان منتقل شدند.

در تاریخ ۳۰ مهرماه ۱۴۰۴، وی مجددا با تودیع وثیقه ۵۰ میلیارد تومانی از زندان قزلحصار کرج آزاد شد. این اقدام با تصمیم شعبه ۱۳ دادگاه کیفری تهران صورت گرفته است.

چهارشنبه ۳۰ اردیبهشت ماه ۱۴۰۵، به گزارش حقوق بشر در ایران، طی روزهای اخیر، علیرضا کفایی، در بخشی از پرونده قضایی خود، توسط قاضی شعبه ۱۳ دادگاه کیفری ۱ استان تهران، به تحمل ۵ سال حبس تعزیری محکوم شد.

در آخرین خبر بر اساس رأی شعبه ۱۵ دادگاه انقلاب تهران، به ریاست قاضی ابوالقاسم صلواتی، حکم او تغییر یافت و به هفت سال حبس، محدودیت فعالیت در فضای مجازی و منع اقامت در تهران و البرز محکوم شد. این احکام بدون حضور و اطلاع وکلای متهمان و تنها به صورت شفاهی به آنان ابلاغ شده است؛ موضوعی که به گفته این منابع، امکان پیگیری حقوقی و ثبت درخواست تجدیدنظر را دشوار کرده است.
