Farshid Hossein Zadeh, an IT engineer, passed away on 8 January 2024 in Mashhad after being shot directly in the lung during the suppression of protests. After being shot, he was transported to the hospital by his brother, and his body was transferred to Behesht Reza cemetery in the early hours of 9 January 2024. Due to the high number of casualties, his body was kept inside a vehicle until 5 PM before being moved to Behesht Reza.

His family visited the authorities the following morning to follow up on the situation and eventually received the body on the afternoon of 10 January 2024. The burial ceremony was held later that day.

Sources close to the family have reported that they were contacted twice with requests to declare Farshid a "martyr," but the family declined this designation.

Farshid Hossein Zadeh held a bachelor's degree in networking and software and owned an industrial workwear production business. He was active in charitable activities, providing financial and emotional support to those in need. He also organised several meetings to improve the welfare of the people in the village of Zoshk, advocating for road paving and the development of facilities in the area.
