Mahmoud Sheykhian was a 49-year-old father of two who was killed during the protests in Shahreza, Isfahan Province. On the night of January 9, 2026, during a call to action, he was shot by security forces using live ammunition. The circumstances of his death were particularly harrowing, as he was shot in the presence of his 15-year-old daughter. His killing left a family and a community in mourning during a period of intense national unrest. Following his death, Mahmoud’s family was denied the right to hold a funeral ceremony for him. This restriction on public mourning was a common practice used against the families of those killed during the protest movement.

محمود شیخیان، پدر ۴۹ ساله و دارای دو فرزند، در جریان اعتراضات شهرضا در استان اصفهان جان خود را از دست داد. او در شب ۱۹ دی‌ماه ۱۴۰۴، همزمان با دومین شب فراخوان‌های مردمی، هدف شلیک مستقیم گلوله جنگی نیروهای امنیتی قرار گرفت. این واقعه دردناک در مقابل دیدگان دختر ۱۵ ساله‌اش رخ داد که شاهد لحظه جان باختن پدرش بود. محمود شیخیان به عنوان یکی از جان‌باختگان این جنبش اعتراضاتی در تاریخ منطقه خود ثبت شده است. مانند بسیاری دیگر از خانواده‌های جان‌باختگان، نهادهای امنیتی اجازه برگزاری مراسم تشییع و خاکسپاری را به خانواده او ندادند. این محرومیت از سوگواری عمومی، فشار مضاعفی بود که در کنار از دست دادن عزیزشان بر این خانواده تحمیل شد.
