Their life

Saeed was born and lived in Isfahan. He worked at a real estate agency, was unmarried, and looked after his parents, his mother aged 81 and his father 84. He had no criminal record. Little else about his life has been made public.

How the regime took them

Executed for the 2022 protests. Saeed was arrested at his workplace on 18 November 2022 and tried in the "Isfahan House" case over the deaths of two Basij members and a police officer during the protests. In a call with his family he said everything he had confessed to was under torture. He spent six months in prison and was sentenced to death for "moharebeh".

He was hanged at dawn on 19 May 2023 in Isfahan, together with Majid Kazemi and Saleh Mirhashemi.
