According to newly obtained reports, at dawn on Tuesday, September 30, 2025, a female inmate identified as Dima Faramarzi was executed in Mahabad Prison.
Dima Faramarzi had previously been sentenced to death on charges of killing her husband’s father.
Despite the execution being carried out, officials at Mahabad Prison and other relevant authorities have refrained from providing any information on the case as of the time of publication.
Iran, the world record holder in executing women
With the execution of Dima Faramarzi in Mahabad Prison, the number of women executed in Iran since the beginning of 2025 has reached 51, marking an unprecedented record in the execution of women in Iran. In the entire 2024, 34 women were executed across the country.
According to data recorded by the Women’s Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, at least 314 women have been executed in Iran since 2007.
Many of the women executed by the Iranian regime are themselves victims of domestic violence and discriminatory family laws. A significant number have acted in self-defense.
In the Iranian calendar Year 1403, at least 38 women were executed in Iran, marking a disturbing 90% increase compared to the previous year.
Since Masoud Pezeshkian took office, the clerical regime has executed more than 2,300 prisoners.
Silence and inaction in the face of the murderers of the Iranian people fuel terrorism, suppression, and warmongering. The regime of execution and terror must be shunned by the international community, and its dossier of human rights violations must be referred to the United Nations Security Council.
