Teenage protester arrested alive, executed as family sought bail - eyewitness
Security forces arrested 16-year-old protester, Mohammad Amin Aghili, alive and later executed him while his family was attempting to secure temporary release on bail, eyewitnesses told Iran International.
The authorities detained the protester and later demanded bail when the family approached judicial officials to follow up on his release. After the family failed to provide the amount, they were eventually handed the body of their son.
According to the account, officials told the family the detainee had died by “suicide,” despite a gunshot wound to the head visible on his body. When relatives objected, authorities were quoted as responding: “That’s how it is.”
