Bloody November

Kept on this phone only. Nothing is sent.

Their life

Mohsen Mohammadpour was 17 and lived in Khorramshahr. He came from a poor family and worked as a builder's labourer to help them get by. The sources say little more about his life.

How the regime took them

Mohsen was hurt during the protests in Khorramshahr, at the Darvazeh roundabout. Accounts differ on how: one says security forces beat him on the head, another that they fired metal pellets into his face from close range. A video seen by Amnesty International shows him lying motionless, his face covered in blood.

He fell into a coma and died at Valiasr Hospital in Khorramshahr. Amnesty International's report gives the date as 18 November 2019; its list gives 16 November.

The Fallen

All discussions, from every page

A name I missed, a memory of someone on this wall, or a correction, with a public source. Never from inside Iran, and never a living relative’s name. Readers' words, not mine.
