Ali Hemmati and Majid Nik-Andish were executed on September 30, 2026 after being arrested in connection with the January protests in Mashhad.
Both men had been sentenced to death by Branch 1 of the Mashhad Revolutionary Court.
Human rights groups raised concerns that torture had been used to obtain confessions. According to one reported account, Majid spent approximately three months in solitary confinement and suffered severe injuries during interrogation.
Their ex*****ons were part of a wider series.
Between September 28 and 30, at least 15 ex*****ons were reported across Iran.
Among those executed was Mahrokh Mirzaei, 30, in Isfahan.
Earlier that month, Rezvan Asgharzadeh, 45 and a mother of six, was executed at Dastgerd Prison after approximately six and a half years in detention.
These are different cases, with different circumstances.
But every ex*****on ends a human life.
Remember their names. Oppose the use of the death penalty.

Alireza Sepahi and Alireza Raeisi were executed on October 5, 2026, at Dastgerd Prison in Isfahan.
Both were arrested in connection with the January protests and were defendants in the Alikhani Square case, which raised serious concerns about fair trial rights and alleged coerced statements.
Just one day before his ex*****on, Sepahi married his fiancée, Mahshad Keshani. Both were imprisoned separately, and they were denied a final visit.
After his death, friends and townspeople held a wedding procession in his honor, decorating cars with flowers and dancing through their grief.
Raeisi, too, leaves behind a life cut short. A former cellmate remembered him as a quiet young man who rarely spoke.
Remember Alireza Sepahi and Alireza Raeisi. Demand accountability and an end to ex*****ons in Iran.

Mahboubeh Shabani and Marziyeh Ebrahimi are two women facing death sentences in Iran.
Mahboubeh, a 33-year-old civil engineer, reportedly helped transport injured protesters to medical care during the January 2026 protests in Mashhad. Her lawyer was informed of her death sentence on September 26. She remains imprisoned in Vakilabad Prison.
In a message from prison, Mahboubeh spoke not only about her own situation, but about other prisoners living with the fear of ex*****on.
Marziyeh Ebrahimi, also known as Souda, was arrested in April 2026. Her case reportedly began after she photographed the site of a missile strike that authorities described as a military location. She was later sentenced to death on charges including “corruption on earth.”
Marziyeh has multiple sclerosis and requires ongoing medical care. Information about her access to a lawyer of her choosing and the status of any appeal remains unavailable.
Both women need urgent protection. Their death sentences must be overturned, and their rights to legal representation and necessary medical care must be guaranteed.

Nika Shakarami was 16 years old.
On September 20, 2022, she joined protests in Tehran. That night, she told a friend that security forces were pursuing her. Then she disappeared.
Nine days later, her family learned that she was dead.
Iranian authorities said Nika had fallen from a building. Her family rejected that account.
In 2024, a BBC investigation based on leaked IRGC documents reported that Nika had been detained, sexually assaulted and fatally beaten by security forces.
Behind these competing accounts was a teenager with a family, friends and a life still ahead of her.
Remember Nika Shakarami. Keep her story visible.

Najmeh Amini is a 23-year-old accounting student from Mashhad who is being held in Vakilabad Prison following her arrest during the January 2026 protests.
In an audio message recorded on September 18, Najmeh says she was sentenced to death two days earlier.
Her request from prison is simple:
“Be my voice.”
She asks for justice, the opportunity to defend herself, and for lawyers, human rights organizations and international institutions to examine her case.
Listen to Najmeh’s words and be her voice.
Remember her name. Keep her case visible.

In Iran, standing up for freedom can cost a life.
Mohammad Amin Soltani was 21 years old. He was a biology student, an only child, a guitarist, and someone who cared deeply for the people around him. He believed kindness mattered even in the smallest everyday choices.
On January 8, while protesting alongside his father, he saw a wounded young woman. He told his father, "You help the wounded," then ran forward himself. Moments later, he was shot by a sniper.
For seven days, his family searched for him before finally finding his body. He was buried with his fists still clenched—a final symbol of the courage that defined his life.
His story is a reminder of the human cost of demanding freedom.
Please share Mohammad Amin's story to help keep his memory and the voices of Iranian youth alive.

At his birthday celebration, Mehrdad Moshtaghi made a simple wish.
"My wish is that I'll always be with my family and my friends."
He was 27 years old an architectural engineer with dreams of building a future, not becoming part of history.
During Iran's nationwide protests, Mehrdad was shot in the head by government security forces using live am******on. He fought for four days before passing away in hospital.
Today, his birthday wish echoes with heartbreaking meaning.
Mehrdad's story is one of countless young Iranians whose lives were cut short while demanding dignity and freedom.
Remember his name.
Share his story.
Because silence allows injustice to continue.

Four years ago, Jina Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old Kurdish woman from Saqqez, died after being detained by Iran’s morality police in Tehran.
A UN fact-finding mission later concluded that physical violence while in custody led to Mahsa’s death and held the Iranian state responsible for her unlawful death.
Her death sparked nationwide protests across Iran and became a defining moment in the struggle for women’s rights, dignity and freedom.
Four years later, Mahsa’s name remains known around the world.
But before she became a symbol, she was a young woman whose life was cut short.
Remember Mahsa Amini. Keep her story visible.

Ten protesters have been sentenced to death in Isfahan.
Their names are Taraneh Rahimi, Navid Elyasi, Abolfazl Dadgostar, Mehdi Mansouri, Ahmad-Reza Saeedi, Mehrdad Boeiri, Mohammad-Mehdi Asadi, Armin Gholami, Parsa Jafari, and Mehdi Jafari.
The death sentences were issued in the case known as the “Shohada Square” case, following the January 2026 demonstrations.
Judges Morteza Barati and Mohammad-Reza Tavakoli issued these death sentences in the case known as the 'Shohada Square' case.
Behind these names are ten human beings whose lives are now at risk.
And this is not an isolated story.

Five protesters have already been executed: Golmohammed, Erfan, Ghaem, Amir, and Abol.
Their absence is not a statistic.
They were people with families, friendships, hopes, memories, and futures. Their names should not disappear from public memory simply because the ex*****ons have already happened.
Today, ten more people face the possibility of the same irreversible fate.

The urgency is clear: a death sentence is not simply a legal decision. It places a human life in immediate danger and demands international attention.
We call on governments, international institutions, human-rights organizations, civil-society groups, and all those with the ability to act to urgently raise their voices.
Call for the death sentences to be halted.
Demand due process and protection for those facing ex*****on.
Stand with the families who are living with uncertainty and fear.

Five lives have already been lost.
Ten more are at risk.
Silence cannot be the final response.

We urge the international community to act now to prevent further ex*****ons and to demand the protection of protesters and activists facing imprisonment, death sentences, or other forms of persecution for exercising their fundamental rights.

Remember their names.
Speak for those who cannot.
Act before it is too late.

Before the sentence, there was a voice.
There was a woman standing among others, asking for what should never have to be asked for: freedom, dignity, safety, and the right to live without fear.
Then came the arrests.
Behind every statistic is a person. Behind every case file is a family. Behind every sentence is a life that cannot simply be reduced to a number.
Taraneh Rahimi and Romina Rahimi are sisters.
Taraneh has been sentenced to death. Romina, her sister, has received a 25-year prison sentence.
Leila Abolhasani, a mother of two teenage daughters, has also been sentenced to death.

When freedom is answered with imprisonment, when protest is answered with punishment, and when the possibility of death becomes a sentence imposed on a human being, silence cannot be the final word.
And we speak their names because human dignity does not end at the prison door.

Their stories deserve to be heard.
Their cases deserve attention.
Their rights deserve to be defended.

Remember Taraneh Rahimi.
Remember Romina Rahimi.
Remember Leila Abolhasani.

Make their voices heard.
