Authorities in Iran have executed a 21-year-old Karate fighter, Sasan Azadvar.
Iran’s judiciary announced the execution on Thursday.
Azadvar was arrested during Iran’s January 2026 protests.
The judiciary accused him of “effective cooperation with the enemy by damaging police vehicles, inciting people to war and killing each other with the intent of disrupting national security, and encouraging others to take part in unrest and riots.”
Azadvar, who was detained in January and held at Dastgerd Prison in central Iran, had previously won provincial karate championships in Isfahan.
