Amirali Mirjafari was executed in the early morning of 21 April at Qezel Hesar Prison in Karaj, secretly and without a final family visit, according to Hengaw, the Norway-based Kurdish human rights organisation monitoring the case1. He was the eighth protest-era detainee executed since the war began at the end of February. Hengaw puts the total political-prisoner figure at 17. His arrest-to-execution interval, roughly three months from his January detention, matches the 'maximum decisiveness' directive the judiciary head issued in early March.
The hanging came the day after Ali Fahim's execution at the same prison, the fourth in a single protest case. Earlier Hengaw filings documented the three-month cadence at Qezel Hesar directly: trials under a month, predawn hangings, no pre-execution family visit. Iran's judicial pipeline is running one protest-era execution per week on the same clock as the Pakistan-mediated back-channel.
