Masoud Pezeshkian continues to exercise presidential authority as the elected head of Iran’s executive branch, with recent activities including departure for New York to address the UN General Assembly and bilateral meetings on diplomatic and economic issues. No verified reports or official statements indicate domestic legal action, detention orders, or factional moves targeting him personally in the days preceding the September 28 resolution window. Institutional safeguards, including constitutional protections for the office and alignment with the supreme leader and security apparatus following the 2026 leadership transition, underpin trader consensus on the low probability of arrest. Rare scenarios that could still shift outcomes within the tight timeline include an abrupt internal power shift, undisclosed health incapacity triggering succession procedures, or rapid escalation from ongoing regional tensions prompting emergency measures.

(ii) he is taken into custody in response to a criminal arrest warrant, criminal charge, indictment, or equivalent criminal charging instrument;
(iii) he is held for arraignment, bail, extradition, or other criminal court proceedings other than as a witness; or
(iv) he is transported to a police station or equivalent criminal law enforcement center.

The following will not qualify on their own: brief detention, being interviewed or questioned, being searched, house arrest, electronic monitoring, protective custody, witness protection, or medical holds.
Any arrest occurring before market creation will not qualify.
Release on bail, recognizance, bond, dismissal of charges, withdrawal of charges, acquittal, pardon, or any other post-arrest development will not affect resolution once a qualifying arrest has occurred.
