SubjectUrgent case of Alireza Najati – request for parliamentary engagement
BodyDear Honourable Danuše NERUDOVÁ, I am writing regarding the case of Alireza Najati, who is currently at risk of execution in Iran. Alireza Nejati, a Greco-Roman wrestling champion and world medalist from Qom, was arrested and beaten by the Qom Intelligence Organization on 17 Dey 1404. He remains in detention and no information is available on his condition, charges, or imprisonment. Further information is available here: https://lookerstudio.google.com/embed/u/0/reporting/71414769-37ca-4359-9e86-48c7c704da98/page/p_zkwf39o10d In its January 2026 resolution on repression in Iran, the European Parliament strongly condemned the continued use of the death penalty and reaffirmed its position on listing the IRGC as a terrorist organisation, as well as restricting Iranian diplomats’ access to Parliament premises. These steps reflect Parliament’s commitment to accountability and consistent human rights scrutiny. In this context, political sponsorship of detainees sentenced to death remains a particularly effective and structured instrument. Sponsorship, combined with raising the case in plenary or committee, submitting written questions to the EEAS, and facilitating speaking opportunities for human rights defenders or family members, can ensure sustained follow-up rather than isolated statements. Your engagement could make a meaningful contribution to keeping this case under active parliamentary consideration. Sincerely, A concerned citizen

SubjectUrgent Request for Action Regarding Alireza Najati
BodyDear MEP Barry ANDREWS, I am writing to you with deep concern regarding the case of Alireza Najati, who is currently at serious risk of execution in Iran. I respectfully request your urgent attention and action. Alireza Nejati, a Greco-Roman wrestling champion and world medalist from Qom, was arrested and beaten by the Qom Intelligence Organization on 17 Dey 1404. He remains in detention and no information is available on his condition, charges, or imprisonment. The European Parliament has consistently stood for human rights, the rule of law, and the protection of fundamental freedoms. I therefore urge you to raise this case publicly and through diplomatic channels. International attention and clear political pressure can play a decisive role in preventing irreversible harm. I respectfully ask if you would consider: Calling for an immediate halt to the execution. Raising this case with the European External Action Service and relevant EU institutions. Advocating for due process, transparency, and independent review. Supporting broader efforts to address the use of the death penalty in Iran. For your reference, here are reliable sources covering this case: https://lookerstudio.google.com/embed/u/0/reporting/71414769-37ca-4359-9e86-48c7c704da98/page/p_zkwf39o10d Time is critical. Strong and principled action from European representatives can make a meaningful difference. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I sincerely hope you will consider taking action. Sincerely, A concerned citizen
