One of the detainees of the November 2019 protests, he was released following the annulment of his verdict in the Supreme Court. Last October, with the conversion of this political prisoner’s sentence to an open verdict, he had been released from Evin Prison.

On Monday, August 11, 2025, in recent days, Yashar Ghazai, a political prisoner arrested during the nationwide protests of November 2019, was released after completing his open prison sentence.

It was reported that Yashar Ghazai has been released after serving his entire sentence.

It is noteworthy that Yashar Ghazai was tried by Judge Iman Afshari, head of Branch 26 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court, and in 2020, he was sentenced to four years of imprisonment for "assembly and collusion" and six months for "propaganda against the regime."

After an appeal and referral of Yashar Ghazai's case to the Tehran Provincial Court of Appeals, the required imprisonment was reduced to three years and six months.
