HRANA News Agency – On Thursday, April 17, the death sentence of a prisoner previously convicted of murder was carried out at Amirabad Prison in Gorgan.

Hyrcani News has identified the executed prisoner as Ahmad Yavari, 40 years old, a resident of Gorgan, and father of two children.

According to the report, this prisoner had been arrested about two years ago on charges of murder. Although the victim’s family had declared their consent and agreed to forgive him, his execution was carried out suddenly and without prior notice.

As of the time of this report, the execution has not been officially announced by prison authorities or relevant institutions.

In 2024, the Department of Statistics and Publication of Human Rights Activists in Iran documented 812 cases related to the right to life, including the sentencing of 214 individuals to death and the execution of 930 individuals. Among these, 4 executions were carried out in public. Of those executed, 818 were male, 26 were female, and 5 were juvenile offenders—individuals under 18 years old at the time of their alleged crimes.
