Three Prisoners Executed in Adelabad Prison, Shiraz

HRANA News Agency – In the early hours of Wednesday, January 29, 2025, the death sentences of three prisoners convicted of non-political offenses were carried out at Adelabad Prison in Shiraz.

According to HRANA, the news agency of the Human Rights Activists in Iran, the executed individuals have been identified as:

  • Hamid Fanaei (resident of Marvdasht)
  • Amir Fanaei (resident of Marvdasht)
  • Ali Heidari (resident of Shiraz)

HRANA has confirmed that these three prisoners had been sentenced to death by judicial authorities for non-political offenses.

As of the time of this report, prison officials and relevant authorities have not publicly announced these executions. In 2024, judicial authorities or domestic media in Iran officially announced only 6% of executions, underscoring a deeply troubling lack of transparency in the country’s legal and judicial processes.

According to HRANA’s data, Adelabad Prison in Shiraz carried out 85 executions in 2024, marking a 73% increase compared to the previous year. This places it as the second most active prison for executions in Iran. For a detailed analysis and full statistics on executions across the country, refer to HRANA’s report.
