Previously Hengaw had reported the execution of Maqam (Magham).
According to a report received by Hengaw, on the early morning of Wednesday, December 27, 2023, the death sentences of 32-year-old Ismail Qadir Maqam from Zahedan, 30-year-old Ahmad Gergij from Zabul, both Baloch prisoners, and 50-year-old Mohammad Hesari (Hissari), a Kurdish prisoner from Kangavar, were carried out in Birjand Central Prison.
Hengaw received information indicating that another Kurdish prisoner, currently held in solitary confinement, has temporarily suspended his death sentence and may face execution in the coming days.
Ismail Qadir Maqam, Ahmad Gergij, and Mohammad Hesari were arrested four years ago on charges related to drug crimes.
The execution of these prisoners was conducted covertly, with their families left uninformed and deprived of the right to a final visit.
News concerning the three prisoners has yet to be disclosed by government media.
