Mosayeb Azizi, Sajad Eghbali + Unk.
On February 26, 2025, Ghezel Hesar Prison in Karaj witnessed the execution of at least three prisoners. Among them, two were sentenced to death in separate murder cases, while the third was executed on charges of moharebeh (enmity against God) through direct involvement in an armed robbery.
HRANA has identified two of the executed individuals as Mosayeb Azizi from Arak and Sajad Eghbali from Kuhdasht, Lorestan province. Both had previously been arrested in separate murder cases and sentenced to death by the judiciary.
The identity of the third executed prisoner has not yet been confirmed. However, he had been sentenced to death on charges of moharebeh through direct involvement in an armed robbery. The Judiciary’s media center has released details of his case.
According to Mizan News, in September 2022, police officers patrolling the area grew suspicious of two motorcyclists. When the suspects attempted to flee, officers opened fire, eventually stopping and arresting them. Weapons were discovered in their possession, and they later confessed to carrying out a series of “violent robberies.” One of the suspects was sentenced to death, and after the Supreme Court upheld the verdict, the execution was carried out this morning.
As of the time of this report, prison and judicial authorities have not publicly announced these executions.
