Narrative

Maliheh Firouzeh was a 24-year-old woman from Bojnourd, North Khorasan, who became a victim of state violence during the 2026 protest movements. On January 8, 2026, she was wounded by pellet shots fired by security forces and was subsequently taken into custody. While in detention, Maliheh was subjected to severe torture. She died as a result of the physical abuse she endured, but her family was forced to wait 25 days before her body was finally returned to them. When they were eventually allowed to see her, the evidence of state-inflicted violence was undeniable, including broken limbs, visible burns, and the loss of her left eye. In an attempt to conceal the cause of her death, authorities pressured Maliheh’s family to sign statements claiming she had died by suicide or self-immolation. Despite this coercion and the demand for a quiet burial, the details of her treatment in custody have emerged as a testament to her story.

ملیحه فیروزه، زن ۲۴ ساله‌ای اهل بجنورد در استان خراسان شمالی بود که در جریان جنبش‌های اعتراضی سال ۱۴۰۴ جان خود را از دست داد. در تاریخ ۱۸ دی ۱۴۰۴، او پس از آنکه هدف شلیک گلوله‌های ساچمه‌ای نیروهای امنیتی قرار گرفت و مجروح شد، توسط این نیروها بازداشت گردید. ملیحه در دوران بازداشت تحت شکنجه‌های شدید قرار گرفت و در اثر جراحات ناشی از این خشونت‌ها جان باخت. نهادهای امنیتی پیکر او را به مدت ۲۵ روز نزد خود نگه داشتند و سرانجام زمانی که جسد او را به خانواده‌اش تحویل دادند، آثار هولناک شکنجه بر بدن او مشهود بود؛ از جمله شکستگی دست و پا، سوختگی‌های شدید و تخلیه چشم چپ. مقامات امنیتی خانواده فیروزه را به شدت تحت فشار قرار دادند تا علت مرگ او را «خودکشی و خودسوزی» اعلام کنند. علیرغم این فشارها برای سکوت و پنهان‌کاری، شواهد عینی از وضعیت پیکر او نشان‌دهنده وقوع قتل حکومتی در بازداشتگاه است. پیکر این جاویدنام در نهایت تحت تدابیر امنیتی به خاک سپرده شد.
