Shot by government sniper positioned on National Bank of Iran rooftop at Abshar intersection in Isfahan on Friday the 19th at 6 PM. Bullet hit his shoulder. Was hospitalized at Sadoughi Hospital in Isfahan under IRGC supervision. Despite being alive with only a shoulder wound, family was not allowed to see him. After one week of family pursuing his whereabouts, they were told they could go to Bagh Rezvan (cemetery). When family reached his body, they found he had been killed with a coup de grâce shot. While his shoulder was bandaged, there were traces of another bullet on his chest. Killed in hospital while wounded - a crime against humanity.
