The death sentences of two prisoners, previously convicted of murder in separate cases, were carried out in Rudbar Prison, Gilan province.

According to HRANA, quoting the Iran Human Rights Organization, the executed individuals were identified as Ali Akbar Gharib Sardoui and Hamed Basirat, both residents of Rudbar.

Reports state that Ali Akbar Gharib Sardoui was arrested on murder charges and later sentenced to death by the judiciary. His execution took place at dawn on Saturday, December 14, 2024, in Rudbar Prison.

Similarly, the execution of Hamed Basirat was carried out at dawn on Monday, December 9, 2024. He had also been arrested in a separate murder case and sentenced to death by the judiciary.

As of the time of this report, neither prison authorities nor relevant officials have publicly announced these executions. In 2023, 66% of HRANA’s reports on executions lacked official announcements by judicial authorities and went unreported by media inside Iran, highlighting a troubling lack of transparency in due process.
