BodyDear Honourable Hannah Neumann,
I am writing with urgent concern regarding Masoud Naeimi Rad, who is currently at imminent risk of execution in Iran.
This case comes at a particularly alarming time. In recent months, Iranian authorities have intensified executions in parallel with widespread unrest and ongoing conflict. These actions are increasingly carried out under conditions of severe internet restrictions and communication blackouts, which limit transparency and prevent independent scrutiny.
Masoud Naeimi Rad, 47, a bodybuilder and style blogger, was arrested during the 18 Dey 1404 protests in Gorgan. His family confirmed the arrest and there are reports that he is being held in Amirabad Prison in Gorgan. No news of his release or changes in his condition has been released.
Credible reports indicate that detainees are often subjected to unfair trials, restricted legal access, and coerced confessions. When executions take place during periods of reduced visibility, the risk of irreversible injustice is significantly heightened.
In this context, international attention becomes one of the few remaining safeguards.
I respectfully urge you to:
* Call for an immediate halt to the execution of Masoud Naeimi Rad
* Raise this case urgently with the European External Action Service and relevant EU institutions
* Advocate for transparency and independent monitoring, particularly during ongoing communication restrictions

Time is critical. When visibility is deliberately reduced, silence can enable irreversible harm.
Thank you for your attention.
Sincerely,
A concerned citizen
