SubjectTranslating Parliament’s Iran Position into Case-Based Protection – Kavan Sabouri

BodyDear Honourable Per Clausen, I am writing to bring to your immediate attention the case of Kavan Sabouri, who is reportedly facing 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 stages. Kavan Saburi, a 17-year-old teenager from Gazrokhani village in Kamyaran, has been missing since 20 Dey 1404 (2015 AH) after leaving home, and more than 40 days later, his fate remains unknown. Security forces have denied arresting him. The European Parliament’s January 2026 resolution and related measures marked a clear escalation in the EU’s response to repression in Iran. At a time when visibility is being deliberately reduced, ensuring that individual cases receive sustained and visible attention is essential. In this regard, I respectfully urge you to consider: – Sponsoring Kavan Sabouri as a detainee at risk of execution to ensure continuous visibility – Raising this case in parliamentary discussions and with EU foreign policy representatives – Supporting briefings or events with human rights defenders and experts monitoring imminent execution cases – Encouraging coordinated attention to named detainees at risk, particularly where executions may occur under restricted visibility When individual cases are visibly monitored by elected representatives, the level of international scrutiny increases, raising the cost of proceeding with executions.

Sincerely, A concerned citizen

SubjectRequest for Protective Parliamentary Sponsorship – Kavan Sabouri

BodyDear MEP Hanna Gedin, I am reaching out regarding the urgent case of Kavan Sabouri, 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. Kavan Saburi, a 17-year-old teenager from Gazrokhani village in Kamyaran, has been missing since 20 Dey 1404 (2015 AH) after leaving home, and more than 40 days later, his fate remains unknown. Security forces have denied arresting him. 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 Kavan Sabouri 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: Kavan Sabouri at Risk of Execution

BodyDear MEP Thomas Geisel, I am writing to urgently draw your attention to the case of Kavan Sabouri, 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. Kavan Saburi, a 17-year-old teenager from Gazrokhani village in Kamyaran, has been missing since 20 Dey 1404 (2015 AH) after leaving home, and more than 40 days later, his fate remains unknown. Security forces have denied arresting him. 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 Kavan Sabouri * 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
