SubjectUrgent Human Rights Case Requiring Parliamentary Follow-Up – Arman Marefati
BodyDear MEP Fernand KARTHEISER, I am writing to request your urgent attention to the case of Arman Marefati, who is currently facing the risk of execution in Iran. Arman Marafati is one of the detainees of the 1404 Dey protests in Tehran who, along with two Dey supporters, has been tried in the Tehran Revolutionary Court on charges of gathering and colluding against security and participating in the destruction of public property (burning the Jafari Mosque and the Dey Imams' Seminary in Nasr Alley). The court session was held recently and no news has been released about Dey's release. The European Parliament has already taken a firm stance in response to the situation in Iran, notably through its January 2026 resolution condemning repression, its position regarding the IRGC, and its measures limiting engagement with Iranian state representatives. These actions established a clear political framework. The next step is ensuring that individual cases at imminent risk are consistently integrated into that framework. In practical terms, I respectfully suggest: – Taking on Arman Marefati as a sponsored detainee under a structured parliamentary advocacy initiative focused specifically on death penalty cases. – Requesting updates from the EEAS on this individual case and ensuring it is raised in diplomatic exchanges. – Supporting formal invitations for Iranian human rights defenders, UN mandate holders, or affected family members to brief Members on urgent execution cases. – Encouraging coordinated cross-party visibility efforts, such as joint letters or questions highlighting named prisoners at risk. Sustained attention to specific detainees transforms general resolutions into tangible protection mechanisms. When Parliament members visibly monitor a case, it signals continued international scrutiny.

Sincerely, A concerned citizen

SubjectFollow-up to Parliament’s Iran Resolution – Urgent Case of Arman Marefati
BodyDear Honourable Alice KUHNKE, I am writing to draw your attention to the urgent case of Arman Marefati, who is currently at risk of execution in Iran. Arman Marafati is one of the detainees of the 1404 Dey protests in Tehran who, along with two Dey supporters, has been tried in the Tehran Revolutionary Court on charges of gathering and colluding against security and participating in the destruction of public property (burning the Jafari Mosque and the Dey Imams' Seminary in Nasr Alley). The court session was held recently and no news has been released about Dey's release. In January 2026, the European Parliament adopted a strong resolution condemning the repression of protesters in Iran, called for increased accountability measures, supported listing the IRGC as a terrorist organisation, and took the important step of restricting access for Iranian diplomats to Parliament premises. These actions sent a clear message that the European Union will not remain silent in the face of systematic human rights violations. In light of this firm position, I respectfully urge you to consider concrete steps in this specific case: – Publicly sponsor Arman Marefati as part of a political sponsorship or detainee advocacy initiative for prisoners facing the death penalty. – Raise this case in plenary or committee discussions and with the EEAS. – Support inviting human rights defenders, former political prisoners, or family members to speak before Parliament or relevant committees to maintain visibility on urgent execution cases. – Call for an immediate halt to the execution and for full due process guarantees. Consistent and visible engagement by Members of the European Parliament has, in past cases, contributed to delaying or stopping executions. Sustained political sponsorship and institutional attention can provide a layer of protection for those most at risk. Further information on this case is available here: https://lookerstudio.google.com/embed/u/0/reporting/71414769-37ca-4359-9e86-48c7c704da98/page/p_zkwf39o10d Given the gravity and urgency of the situation, timely action could be decisive. Sincerely, A concerned citizen

SubjectUrgent Request for Action Regarding Arman Marefati
BodyDear Honourable Alessandra MORETTI, I am writing to you with deep concern regarding the case of Arman Marefati, who is currently at serious risk of execution in Iran. I respectfully request your urgent attention and action. Arman Marafati is one of the detainees of the 1404 Dey protests in Tehran who, along with two Dey supporters, has been tried in the Tehran Revolutionary Court on charges of gathering and colluding against security and participating in the destruction of public property (burning the Jafari Mosque and the Dey Imams' Seminary in Nasr Alley). The court session was held recently and no news has been released about Dey's release. 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.
