Brutal Execution of Political Prisoner Hamid Hosseinnezhad Heydaranlou by Khamenei’s Henchmen
On Monday, April 21, 2025, Khamenei’s henchmen hanged political prisoner Hamid Hosseinnezhad Heydaranlou. His family had gathered in protest against this brutal execution in front of Urmia Prison for several days prior.
On the same day, four other prisoners were hanged: Mahan Heidari in Sepidar Prison in Ahvaz, Saeed Derikvand in Parsiloun Prison in Khorramabad, and Mohammad Ahmadzadeh and Behnam Bargpoosh in Yasuj Prison.
Additionally, on Tuesday, April 22, 30-year-old Vahid Narouyi and four other prisoners were executed in Yazd Prison.
The Iranian Resistance once again calls on the United Nations, the European Union, its member states, and all international human rights organizations to firmly condemn the escalating wave of brutal executions in Iran and to take urgent action to save the lives of death row prisoners, particularly political prisoners.
