Homayoun worked as a bookseller in Tehran. He was arrested in Esfand 1360 (February/March 1982). Following his arrest, he was subjected to brutal torture; notably, he set a record for endurance by remaining on his feet for 96 hours while in prison. In 1367 (1988), in the wake of the massacre of political prisoners at Gohardasht Prison in Karaj, he was sentenced to death after a "trial" lasting only a few minutes and was sent to the firing squad on the 9th of Shahrivar of that same year.

Homayoun Azadi born in 1958, was arrested during a raid on the distribution and printing section of the Organization of Iranian People's Fedai Guerrillas in Esfand 1360 (February 1982). His brother, Hamid Azadi, was killed during the arrest.

Investigators did not have specific evidence against him, which resulted in a prolonged period of interrogation. Eventually, he was sentenced to 12 years in prison. He spent his time in various sections, including Section One and Section Four - Unit One of Qezel Hesar Prison, Halls 3 and 5 known as the Education Center of Evin, and a section referred to as the "Ovinis" in Gohardasht Prison. In Shahrivar 1367 (September 1988), he was in the "Ovinis" section of Gohardasht Prison.

On Shahrivar,10, 1367 (1 September 1988), he attended a session known as the court. His fellow inmates, who were behind the court door, heard him responding to questions from Niri without answering, stating that he had chosen his beliefs outside of prison and would not respond to questions about his beliefs in this confined environment. Niri issued a ruling of apostasy against him, and he was executed on the same day.

همایون آزادی، زاده ۱۳۳۷ در اسفند ۱۳۶۰ در یورش به بخش توزیع و چاپخانه سازمان چریک های فدایی خلق ایران دستگیر شد. برادرش، حمید آزادی، در هنگام دستگیری کشته شد.

بازجویان مدرک مشخصی بر علیه وی نداشتند، به همین دلیل مدت ها زیربازجویی باقی ماند. سرانجام او به ۱۲ سال زندان محکوم شد. او در بندهای مختلفی از جمله بند یک و بند چهار- واحد یک زندان قزل حصار، سالن ۳ و ۵ موسوم به آموزشگاه اوین، و بند موسوم به بند “اوینی ها” در زندان گوهردشت دوران زندان خود را گذراند. در شهریور ۱۳۶۷ او در «بند اوینی ها» در زندان گوهردشت بود.

دهم شهریور ۱۳۶۷ به جلسه موسوم به دادگاه رفت. هم بندیانش که در پشت در دادگاه بودند، صدای او را می شنیدند که به سوالات نیری پاسخ نمی داد و می گفت: “من نظرات خودم را در بیرون از زندان و به دور از شرایط بسته اینجا انتخاب کرده ام، بنابراین به سوالاتی که در زندان، در مورد عقایدم می شود، پاسخ نمی دهم.”
نیری، حکم مرتد فطری را در مورد او صادر کرد و همان روز به دار آویخته شد.
