Biography

Karoon Hajizadeh was a nine-year-old boy who was murdered in 1998 during the series of state-sponsored political assassinations known as the Chain Murders of Iran. He was killed alongside his father, Hamid Hajizadeh, in the city of Kerman. His death remains a poignant symbol of the state violence that targeted even the children of political figures during this period.

کارون حاجی‌زاده کودک ۹ ساله‌ای بود که در سال ۱۳۷۷ (۱۹۹۸ میلادی) در جریان قتل‌های زنجیره‌ای ایران به قتل رسید. او به همراه پدرش، حمید حاجی‌زاده، در شهر کرمان کشته شد. مرگ این کودک بی‌گناه به عنوان یکی از تلخ‌ترین برگ‌های پرونده ترورهای سیاسی در ایران و خشونت علیه خانواده‌های فعالان در حافظه جمعی باقی مانده است.
