HRANA – On Sunday, August 31, 2025, the death sentence of a prisoner previously convicted of murder was carried out in Borazjan Prison, Bushehr province.

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.
