HRANA– At dawn yesterday, Tuesday, July 29, a prisoner previously sentenced to death on murder charges was executed in Dizelabad Prison in Kermanshah.

HRANA has identified the individual as Navid Rostami, a Kermanshah native, who was hanged at dawn yesterday. He had been arrested approximately six years ago on murder charges and later sentenced to death by the Criminal Court.

As of the time of this report, prison authorities and responsible institutions have not officially announced the execution.

In 2024, according to 812 reports compiled by HRANA, the Iranian regime executed 930 individuals in its prisons—marking the highest number of executions in the past 12 years. Despite the scale of these executions, prison officials and other relevant authorities publicly acknowledged only 6% of them, highlighting the regime’s lack of transparency and accountability.
