Two innocent people are facing execution in Iran. We must act now.
Mohammad Javad Vafaee - boxing coach & activist
Zahra Tabari - retired Engineer & activist
Zahra Shahbaz Tabari
Zahra Shahbaz Tabari, a 67-year-old retired electrical engineer from Rasht, Iran, has become a symbol of quiet defiance and extraordinary courage. A highly educated woman who spent her career in sustainable energy, Zahra was arrested in 2025 for her association with the democratic opposition and her advocacy for women’s rights.
She was sentenced to death after a ten-minute video hearing — a sham trial held without a lawyer — for the alleged “crime” of possessing a small banner that read “Woman, Resistance, Freedom.” Despite her age and the threat of execution, Zahra has remained unafraid, saying she is proud to stand for truth and justice.
Her calm bravery in the face of tyranny has touched hearts across Iran and beyond, making her one of the most powerful voices of conscience in the struggle for freedom
Mohammad Javad Vafaei Sani
He is a young boxing champion and coach from Mashhad, Iran, respected for his courage, integrity, and compassion. Known for mentoring youth and promoting fairness through sport, he became a voice for justice and human dignity.
In 2020, he was arrested for his peaceful activism and later charged with “corruption on earth,” a charge often used to silence dissent. His death sentence, reinstated in October 2025, has drawn international outrage, with Olympic legends including Martina Navratilova and Sharron Davies among those calling for clemency.
His strength and resolve continue to symbolise hope and moral courage in the face of injustice.

Two innocent people — a young boxing champion and a 67-year-old retired engineer — have been sentenced to death after sham trials.
