متنDear Thierry MARIANI,
I am writing to draw your attention to the urgent case of Ahmad Khosravi, who is currently at risk of execution in Iran.
Ahmad Khosravi, a nurse at Dehloran Hospital in Ilam Province, was arrested along with his colleagues on 19 Dey 1404 for treating injured protesters and transferred to an unknown location. Recent reports (Bahman 1404) still indicate his arrest, and there is no information on his whereabouts or 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 Ahmad Khosravi 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.

Given the gravity and urgency of the situation, timely action could be decisive.
Sincerely,
A concerned citizen
