Hengaw has confirmed the identities of seven additional individuals killed during the December protests in Isfahan Province after being shot by government forces.
According to information Hengaw obtained on January 19, Mohammad Jafarpoor, 23, Amir Nadafi, 32, and Hamid Shahin, 40, all residents of Shahin Shahr, were killed by direct gunfire from Iranian government forces on the evening of January 11.
Mohammad Ranjbar, a resident of Isfahan, was shot in the chest with a military-grade weapon on the evening of January 9 and later died after being transferred to Gharazi Hospital. According to an informed source, he died after government forces prevented him from receiving proper medical treatment at the hospital.
The source added that Mohammad Ranjbar had married only six months earlier and that authorities forced his family, as a condition for releasing his body, to make a recorded statement claiming he was a Basij member and that he had been killed by protesters.
Mehrad Sadeghi, 18, and Masoud Faghihzadeh, both residents of Isfahan, were killed after being shot directly by government forces on the evening of January 8.
On the same night, Pezhman Amini, 37, a resident of Bagh-e Bahadoran and the father of one child, was also killed after being shot by government forces.
