The Hana Human Rights Organization has reported that on Thursday, January 8, 2026, Hamidreza Bagheri, a 20-year-old Kurdish citizen, lost his life during popular protests in Eslamshahr, a suburb of Tehran Province, after being shot directly by the repressive forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
According to Hana’s sources, the body of the deceased was handed over to his family only after they were subjected to pressure and paid 200 million tomans.
