At Rest

20-year-old from Ashkeran village in Varzaneh, Isfahan. His poor parents were threatened that they would not give back his body and would charge for the bullet if they didn't say Ahmad was a Basiji member. Authorities even produced a 'Basiji martyr' obituary for him, when he was actually a mechanic's apprentice earning an honest living.
This record exists so that Ahmad Hasanzadeh, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
More lives from the archive.
