Mehrshad Yazdani was a 24-year-old man from the village of Roodpish in Fuman. He lost his life on January 9, 2026, during the protest movement in the Hafez Abad district of Rasht. His death was the result of being repeatedly struck in the head with batons by Islamic Republic security forces. The circumstances of his killing highlight the violence used against participants in the movement during this period. Following his death, Yazdani's family reportedly faced intense pressure from government authorities to mischaracterize his identity. Officials attempted to coerce the family into labeling him as a member of the Basij or a state martyr, but his family has consistently resisted these demands.
مهرشاد یزدانی، جوانی ۲۴ ساله و اهل روستای رودپیش از توابع فومن بود. او در تاریخ ۱۹ دی ۱۴۰۴ در جریان اعتراضات در محله حافظآباد رشت جان خود را از دست داد. بر اساس گزارشهای ثبت شده، جانباختن او بر اثر ضربات متعدد باتوم ماموران امنیتی جمهوری اسلامی به سرش بوده است. این اقدام بخشی از سرکوب خشونتآمیز معترضان در آن بازه زمانی به شمار میآید. پس از کشته شدن او، خانواده یزدانی تحت فشارهای شدید امنیتی قرار گرفتند تا او را به عنوان «بسیجی» یا «شهید» حکومتی معرفی کنند. با این حال، خانواده وی در برابر این خواستهها و تلاش برای تغییر روایت مرگ او مقاومت کردهاند.
