SubjectRequest for Protective Parliamentary Sponsorship – Arash Nikkhoo
BodyDear Honourable Alice Teodorescu Måwe, I am reaching out regarding the urgent case of Arash Nikkhoo, who is currently at risk of execution in Iran. This case comes amid a concerning escalation in executions during ongoing unrest and conflict, often carried out under conditions of internet restrictions and communication blackouts. These measures significantly reduce transparency and limit international oversight at the most critical moments. Arash Nikkho, a teacher and founder of the Siavash Unit, an environmental activist, was arrested in Dehdasht (Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province) in late Dey 1404 and released on bail in Bahman 1404. The reason for the arrest and the charges are not clear. Some sources indicate that the arrest took place in late Bahman. The European Parliament has recently taken firm positions in response to repression in Iran, including its January 2026 resolution and related measures. At a time when visibility is being deliberately reduced, continued and structured engagement is essential. In that context, I respectfully suggest: – Considering sponsorship of Arash Nikkhoo within a detainee advocacy framework to ensure sustained visibility – Raising this case with the EEAS and in parliamentary discussions – Supporting briefings or hearings with civil society representatives and legal experts on imminent execution cases – Encouraging coordinated attention to similar cases where executions may occur under restricted visibility When individual cases are consistently monitored by elected officials, the international cost of proceeding with executions increases. Further verified reporting on this case is available here: https://lookerstudio.google.com/embed/u/0/reporting/71414769-37ca-4359-9e86-48c7c704da98/page/p_zkwf39o10d Given the urgency and irreversible consequences involved, timely and visible engagement could be critical. Sincerely, A concerned citizen

SubjectImmediate Attention Requested: Arash Nikkhoo at Risk of Execution
BodyDear MEP Matthieu Valet, I am writing to urgently draw your attention to the case of Arash Nikkhoo, who is reportedly at imminent risk of execution in Iran. This case is unfolding at a particularly critical moment. Recent reports indicate a sharp increase in executions during periods of unrest and conflict, often carried out under conditions of internet restrictions and communication blackouts. These measures significantly reduce transparency and limit international oversight at the most critical stages. Arash Nikkho, a teacher and founder of the Siavash Unit, an environmental activist, was arrested in Dehdasht (Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province) in late Dey 1404 and released on bail in Bahman 1404. The reason for the arrest and the charges are not clear. Some sources indicate that the arrest took place in late Bahman. In such circumstances, the risk of irreversible injustice is greatly heightened, particularly given ongoing concerns regarding due process, access to legal representation, and the use of coerced confessions. Public and timely international engagement is therefore essential. I respectfully urge you to: * Call for an immediate halt to the execution of Arash Nikkhoo * Raise this case urgently with EU institutions and diplomatic channels * Advocate for transparency and independent monitoring, especially during ongoing communication restrictions * Support continued parliamentary attention to the use of the death penalty under conditions of limited visibility Further information on this case can be found here: https://lookerstudio.google.com/embed/u/0/reporting/71414769-37ca-4359-9e86-48c7c704da98/page/p_zkwf39o10d At a time when visibility is being reduced, international attention can be decisive in preventing irreversible harm. Thank you for your attention. Sincerely, A concerned citizen
