Iran executes man arrested over January protests, judiciary news outlet
- On Thursday, Iran executed Amirhossein Hatami, who was convicted of attacking a classified military facility in Tehran during January protests, after the Supreme Court upheld his sentence following a rejected appeal.
- Amnesty International previously identified Hatami as one of 11 men at imminent risk of execution, citing concerns over "grossly unfair trials" that relied on forced confessions and alleged torture in detention.
- Mizan, the judiciary's news outlet, reported that Hatami admitted to entering the restricted military site and attempting to seize weapons, while officials finalized cases linked to the nationwide anti-government movement.
- Rights groups including Hengaw warn that Tehran is intensifying executions against political detainees, noting Iran executed three men last month convicted of killing two police officers during the January unrest.
