Their narrative
جاویدنام احسان زالنژاد؛ آرزویی که با گلوله خاموش شد
در جریان خیزش ملی علیه حکومت جمهوری اسلامی؛ احسان شامگاه پنجشنبه ۱۸ دی‌ماه هدف اصابت سه گلوله جنگی به ناحیه گردن، پا و پهلو قرار گرفت و جان باخت. خانواده او همان شب پیکرش را برای خاک‌سپاری به زادگاهش، روستای سینِوا، منتقل کردند. پس از آن، نیروهای امنیتی، فرمانداری و استانداری بارها از خانواده زالنژاد خواستند با معرفی احسان به‌عنوان «شهید» موافقت کنند؛ درخواستی که با مخالفت خانواده روبه‌رو شد. احسان کارمند بازنشسته بانک بود. نزدیکانش او را مردی می‌دانند که خنده هیچ‌گاه از لبانش محو نمی‌شد. او متأهل و پدر دو پسر بود و آرزویش دیدن دامادی فرزندانش؛ آرزویی که با گلوله خاموش شد. پس از کشته شدن او، ویدیوهایی از رقص و زندگی روزمره وی در رسانه‌های اجتماعی و شبکه‌های خبری (مانند ایران اینترنشنال) بازتاب یافت که با استقبال و ابراز همدردی کاربران مواجه شد.
