December 3, 2025: December 3, 2025 - IRAN. Rana Faraj-Oghli, a woman, executed in Tabriz on December 3
Iranian authorities executed Rana Faraj-Oghli, 24, a Turkish woman from Tabriz. According to information received by Hengaw, Faraj-Oghli’s execution was carried out at dawn on December 3, 2025, in Tabriz Central Prison.
Faraj-Oghli had been arrested two years earlier on the accusation of killing her husband. Sources reported that she had been forced into marriage at the age of 16 to a man 19 years older. She endured years of what she described as “a life that felt no different from death,” and in court she stated she did not even want a lawyer because her only feeling was a desire for release from that life.
With the execution of Rana Faraj Oghli, the number of women executed in Iran since the beginning of 2025 has reached 57. According to data recorded by the Women’s Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (Wncri), at least 320 women have been executed in Iran since 2007.
The execution has not been reported by government media.
