Biography
Kourosh Keyvani, an Iranian-Swedish citizen, was a young man fond of motorcycling and nature. He was arrested in Kordan during a 12-day war while motorcycling, with his nature photos used as evidence against him. After eight months in solitary confinement, he was executed by the Islamic Republic on March 18, 2026, on charges of "spying for Israel." His body was buried in the Khavaran desert, and his mother later mourned at his grave.
