Iran executed Javad Zamani and Abolfazl Saedi on Tuesday, June 16, 2026. Both men were convicted of 'moharebeh' (waging war against God) and 'corruption on earth,' according to corroborated reports from multiple news sources. They were accused of being armed leaders of the January 2026 anti-government protests and of deliberately destroying public and private property with the intention of confronting the system of the Islamic Republic of Iran. One source, the Hindu, reported that they were also accused of participating in an attack on the Jafari Mosque in Tehran, but this claim is not corroborated by other outlets.
