HRANA – At dawn on Wednesday, September 17, the death sentences of two prisoners, including a woman, previously convicted of murder in a joint case, were carried out in Sabzevar Prison.

HRANA has identified the executed man as Peyman Khani.

According to information obtained by HRANA, the two prisoners were arrested in 2020 in connection with the murder of a middle-aged man and later sentenced to death by the Criminal Court.

As of the time of this report, the executions have not been announced by prison authorities or official institutions.

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.
