He was sentenced to death for the murder of Nader Bayrami, head of the Intelligence Service in Sahna city of East Kurdistan (Kermanshah province). The confirmation of the death sentence of the 34-year-old protester has sparked widespread reactions in social networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Harana (a human rights organization in Iran), \u201cforced confessions obtained from Mr. Rasai during interrogation\u201d were the main reason for the harsh and inhuman sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On 21.8.1401 Iranian Calendar (12.11.2022) a peaceful demonstration in the city of Sahna was disrupted by an attack by the repressive forces and police. Nader Bayrami, the head of the city&#8217;s Intelligence Service was killed under unclear circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On 3.9.1401 Iranian Calendar (24.11.2022), Reza Rasai, a follower of the Yarsan religion, was arrested along with 10 other citizens for participating in a protest rally and being accused of beating of Nader Bayrami.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The governmental security Services attributed Bayrami\u2019s murder to Reza Rasai. According to the prosecutor, there is no \u201cevidence, witnesses and documents\u201d to prove his guilt, and the charge sheet issued by the trial court has several formal and substantive flaws. There is no sign of Reza Rasai in the published photographs and films associated with the incident. He appeared at the scene after Bayrami had been killed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to reports, the 34-year-old citizen was severely tortured during the arrest and interrogation. Several fractures and injuries are visible on his body. According to Amnesty International he was subjected to torture, physical and sexual violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/nemiran.com\/roj\/gloaptim\/2023\/12\/reza-rasayi-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Reza Rasayi 1\" class=\"wp-image-11694\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nemiran.com\/roj\/gloaptim\/2023\/12\/reza-rasayi-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nemiran.com\/roj\/gloaptim\/2023\/12\/reza-rasayi-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nemiran.com\/roj\/gloaptim\/2023\/12\/reza-rasayi-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nemiran.com\/roj\/gloaptim\/2023\/12\/reza-rasayi-1.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 17th Branch of the Supreme Court of the Islamic Republic of Iran, presided by Judge Barani, has upheld the death sentence of Reza Rasai, one of the detainees of the \u201cWomen, Life, Freedom\u201d Revolution.
