Saghar Gholami, 19, at Imminent Risk of Execution After Confirmation of Death Sentence

According to human‑rights reports, the death sentence of Saghar Gholami, a 19‑year‑old woman from Gonbad in Golestan Province, has been confirmed. Her mother has publicly called on the public and rights advocates to help ensure her daughter’s voice is heard.

Gholami is among the young detainees arrested in recent protest‑related cases. Rights observers warn that her situation reflects growing concerns about the use of severe charges and capital punishment against young people involved in protest movements.
