Iran shot: Another protester executed

The Iranian judiciary has executed another man in connection with the mass protests.

As the justice-related news agency Misan announced, the death sentence against Siavasch Jamschidi was carried out this Saturday morning.

According to the public prosecutor's office, Jamschidi is said to have shot at police officers during the protests at the beginning of the year - this is allegedly based on the analysis of his cell phone data.

He was sentenced to death for, among other things, “conspiracy against the security of the country.”

100 more men are threatened with execution

According to human rights organizations, at least 32 men have been executed so far in connection with the protests.

The director of Iran Human Rights, Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, wrote on X that at least 100 other demonstrators were at risk of execution.

Critics accuse the Iranian authorities of using executions specifically as a deterrent and political intimidation.

The justice system often relies on broad criminal offenses such as espionage, endangering national security or blasphemy.
