TEHRAN, Apr 5: Iran has executed two men convicted of attempting to storm a military facility and access an armory during unrest in January, according to the judiciary-linked outlet Mizan News Agency.
The men, identified as Mohammadamin Biglari and Shahin Vahedparast, were among four defendants in the same case, according to Amnesty International. Iran’s Supreme Court upheld their sentences, describing them as individuals involved in “rioters who sought to commit mass murder” by attempting to steal weapons and military equipment.
Separately, authorities said another defendant in the same case, 18-year-old Amirhossein Hatami, was executed last week as part of proceedings linked to nationwide anti-government protests in Iran.
