Mehrab Abdollahzadeh, a 29-year old from the northwestern Iranian city of Urmia, was executed on Sunday, according to the country's judiciary, more than three years after he was detained in the city during major protests, part of the 'Woman, Life, Freedom' movement in 2022.
He was sentenced to death on charges of “corruption on earth” (Mofsed-e-filarz) in connection with the killing of Abbas Fatemiyeh, a member of the all-volunteer Basij paramilitary force.
