Iran executes fourth protester in Basij base fire case

Mizan, which is affiliated with the judiciary, said the sentence against Ali Fahim had been carried out.

Three other defendants in the same case - Amirhossein Hatami, Mohammadamin Biglari and Shahin Vahedparast - had already been executed.

The case relates to a fire at the Shahid Mahmoud Kaveh Basij base in east Tehran on the evening of January 8, after which seven people were arrested.

All seven were sentenced over “enmity against God” (moharebeh), a charge that carries the death penalty.
