The Islamic Republic’s police have arrested a transgender individual in northeastern Iran.

The police chief of Gonbad-e Kavus, Golestan province, announced the arrest of a transgender person.

The individual is arrested on the charge of “gathering a group of young motorcyclists to cause traffic disruptions in Gonbad-e Kavus, with the intention of promoting indecency and promiscuity.”

However, the specific actions constituting “indecency” haven’t been disclosed.

Regardless of the motive, legal proceedings have begun against the individual.
