Abbas Disnad

Abbas Disenad, born on 20 December 1961, was married and had two children. During the Iran-Iraq War, which lasted from September 1980 to August 1988, he was present on the front lines and sustained injuries.

On 20 June 2009, Mr. Disenad was working in his shop on Karun Street in Tehran. At approximately 5 p.m., while on his way from the shop to his home, security officers struck him on the head with a baton, resulting in a brain hemorrhage. His family was unaware of his condition until they were contacted by the hospital later that night. According to available information, three individuals injured during the demonstrations on 20 June passed away at Shahriar Hospital on the same day. Mr. Disenad died at Shahriar Hospital on 24 June 2009.

Residents near his shop stated that when he fell to the ground due to the baton strike, government officers prevented bystanders from taking him to the hospital, leaving him on the ground for several hours. His wife mentioned that hospital doctors had informed her that if Mr. Disenad had been taken to the hospital sooner, he might have survived.

Officials handed over Mr. Disenad's body to the family on the condition that they declare he died of a heart attack. A medical examiner's certificate was not provided to the family.
