Their story

Hossein Goudarzvand Chegini was a 21-year-old Lur from Loushan who lived in Rostamabad in Gilan province. Local pages describe him as the breadwinner who supported his family. On the night of 8 January 2026 (18 Dey 1404), during the protests in Rostamabad, he was shot with live ammunition by the regime's forces. According to sources who spoke to Hyrcani Human Rights Media, the bullet hit him in the neck while he was stopping to drink water. Witnesses said forces stationed in front of the local Basij base used heavy weapons that night, including a DShK machine gun.
