On 18 Dey, at around 6:00 p.m., before leaving home, Hamed said to his younger brother, “I'm going so that you can have a better life—for freedom.” Hamed and his close friend, Alireza Sehatbakhsh, went to Tehranpars. Both lost their lives that night. According to the account provided, Hamed was struck by four bullets—three from behind and one beneath his right ear.

Memorial narrative
My brother became one of the fallen on the path to freedom. He always used to say, “Brother, the greatest stroke of luck in our lives was being born Kurdish—that was the lottery we won.” He chose to go in the hope of freedom, believing that afterward, both he and all of us would finally be able to live in peace and with dignity.
