Seyyed Mohammad Taghavi Sangdehi, a citizen of Amol, Mazandaran, was executed on Monday, 30 March 2026

On Thursday, July 4, 2024, Seyed Mohammad Mojtaba Taghavi, born in 1967, a graduate in graphic design from the University of Tehran, a political activist, and a former political prisoner from the 1980s, remains in Evin Prison, deprived of his civil rights despite a hearing held by Branch 26 of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran. This political activist has been in temporary detention since February 23, 2024.

A knowledgeable source reported that the case against Seyed Mohammad Mojtaba Taghavi is based on his dissenting views. Since his arrest, during interrogation and preliminary hearings, he has been denied access to legal counsel. Even during the hearing held on July 1 of this year at Branch 26 of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran, he was transferred to the security ward 209 of the Ministry of Intelligence located in Evin Prison due to his refusal to wear prison clothes and attend the hearing, as requested by the prosecutor's representative and ordered by Judge Afshari. He is currently held in shared rooms.

It is noteworthy that Seyed Mohammad Mojtaba Taghavi was arrested on February 23, 2024, in the city of Chaldoran, West Azerbaijan Province, by security forces. After being transferred to Maku Prison and undergoing initial interrogations, he was moved to Tehran and the security ward 209 of the Ministry of Intelligence located in Evin Prison for further interrogation and case formation. During this time, he was subjected to various physical, mental, and psychological pressures, and his case was referred to the investigative branch at the District 33 Prosecutor's Office in Tehran.

During the interrogation process, Seyed Mohammad Mojtaba Taghavi was charged by Investigator Alizadeh, head of Branch 5 of the District 33 Prosecutor's Office in Tehran, with "propaganda against the regime" and "membership in groups intending to disrupt national security." His case was then referred to Branch 26 of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran for a trial date to be set.

On June 24, 2024, the first hearing on the charges against Seyed Mohammad Mojtaba Taghavi was held by Judge Iman Afshari, head of Branch 26 of the Revolutionary Court of Tehran. However, due to the defendant's refusal to wear prison clothes, he was not sent to that hearing.

Previously, in the 1980s, Seyed Mohammad Taghavi was also arrested by the Ministry of Intelligence due to his political dissent and was sentenced by the Revolutionary Court to imprisonment. He was ultimately released after serving his sentence.

On Saturday, November 30, 2024, according to the verdict issued by Judge Iman Afshari, which was communicated to the lawyers and the defendant in Evin Prison, Seyed Mohammad Taghavi Sang Dehi, as the second defendant in this case, was sentenced to death for "acting against national security through rebellion," five years of imprisonment for "assembly and collusion to disrupt national security," and ten years of imprisonment for "forming a group intending to disrupt national security."
