SubjectTranslating Parliament’s Iran Position into Case-Based Protection – Mohammad Mahshari
BodyDear Hanna GEDIN, I am writing to bring to your immediate attention the case of Mohammad Mahshari, who is reportedly facing execution in Iran. Mohammad Mohshari, an Asian boxing champion and Turkish citizen from Maragheh, was arrested by security forces at his home on 28 Dey 1404 and transferred to the Tabriz Intelligence Detention Center. His family is unaware of his fate. The European Parliament’s January 2026 resolution on repression in Iran, along with its firm position regarding the IRGC and the restriction of access for Iranian representatives, marked a clear escalation in the EU’s political response. To ensure these positions remain impactful, it is crucial that they are consistently applied to individual cases where lives are at imminent risk. In this regard, I respectfully ask you to consider a more structured, preventive approach: – Adopting Mohammad Mahshari under a formal political sponsorship mechanism focused specifically on prisoners sentenced to death. – Requesting that this case be included in official parliamentary communications and raised in dialogues with EU foreign policy representatives. – Supporting dedicated briefings or side-events in Parliament featuring Iranian human rights advocates and experts monitoring execution cases. – Promoting a coordinated initiative among Members to track and publicly reference named detainees at risk, reinforcing sustained oversight rather than one-time statements. When individual prisoners are visibly linked to elected representatives, it increases transparency and international scrutiny. Consistent political association can serve as a deterrent in cases where proceedings lack due process safeguards.

Sincerely, A concerned citizen

SubjectImmediate Attention Requested: Mohammad Mahshari at Risk of Execution
BodyDear Honourable Thomas GEISEL, I am contacting you to urgently request your attention to the case of Mohammad Mahshari, who is reportedly facing imminent execution in Iran. Mohammad Mohshari, an Asian boxing champion and Turkish citizen from Maragheh, was arrested by security forces at his home on 28 Dey 1404 and transferred to the Tabriz Intelligence Detention Center. His family is unaware of his fate. The risk of irreversible harm in this case is severe. Public intervention by Members of the European Parliament has, in previous cases, contributed to halting executions and ensuring international scrutiny. Timely and visible engagement can have a meaningful impact. I respectfully urge you to: Issue a public statement calling for an immediate suspension of the execution. Engage with EU institutions and relevant diplomatic channels to press for a stay of execution. Advocate for fair legal proceedings, transparency, and access to independent legal representation. Support continued parliamentary attention to the broader use of the death penalty in Iran. Further information and reporting on this case can be found here: https://lookerstudio.google.com/embed/u/0/reporting/71414769-37ca-4359-9e86-48c7c704da98/page/p_zkwf39o10d Your voice and position carry weight. Prompt action may help save a life. Sincerely, A concerned citizen

SubjectIntegrating Mohammad Mahshari’s case into Parliament’s Iran human rights framework
BodyDear Honourable Niels GEUKING, The European Parliament’s January 2026 resolution on repression in Iran established a clear mandate for sustained scrutiny of executions, accountability for systemic abuses, support for listing the IRGC as a terrorist organisation, and continued restrictions on Iranian diplomats’ access to Parliament premises. Translating these positions into consistent parliamentary practice remains essential. In that context, I would like to draw your attention to the case of Mohammad Mahshari. Mohammad Mohshari, an Asian boxing champion and Turkish citizen from Maragheh, was arrested by security forces at his home on 28 Dey 1404 and transferred to the Tabriz Intelligence Detention Center. His family is unaware of his fate. Further information is available here: https://lookerstudio.google.com/embed/u/0/reporting/71414769-37ca-4359-9e86-48c7c704da98/page/p_zkwf39o10d Political sponsorship of detainees sentenced to death provides a structured channel for follow-up that extends beyond public statements. Incorporating this case into committee work, raising it through written questions to the EEAS, and facilitating policy discussions with human rights defenders or family members can help ensure regular institutional engagement. Positioning individual cases within Parliament’s broader Iran strategy reinforces coherence between resolutions and day-to-day parliamentary oversight. Sincerely, A concerned citizen
