Their story

Asghar Taghvaei Keshtkar, 37, was killed on Thursday, 8 January 2026 (18 Dey 1404), during nationwide anti-government protests in Iran. A memorial database places his death in the town of Alvand, Qazvin province, and a list compiled by Iran Human Rights (IHRNGO) also records him as killed in Qazvin province that day. The Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA) lists him among protesters killed and classifies his case as confirmed; its first source is the list of names published by state news agency IRNA and the President’s Office. The circumstances of his death have not been made public. Rights groups have reported that at least one other resident of Alvand was shot dead with live ammunition during protests in the town that same day
