Biography

Mohammad Eskandari was a 24-year-old from Shahrekord who died on January 24, 2026, after being shot by security forces during the national revolutionary wave. He had been hospitalized since January 8, 2026, after sustaining severe gunshot wounds to his shoulder, arm, and leg. His family faced significant pressure to attribute his death to illness and was forced to pay a 4 billion toman bail for a restricted nighttime burial.

محمد اسکندری، جوان ۲۴ ساله اهل شهرکرد، در تاریخ ۴ بهمن ۱۴۰۴ بر اثر شلیک مستقیم نیروهای امنیتی جان باخت. او که از ۱۸ دی ماه به دلیل اصابت تیر جنگی به کتف، دست و پا در بیمارستان بستری بود، سرانجام بر اثر جراحات وارده به شهادت رسید. خانواده وی تحت فشارهای شدید برای اعلام بیماری به عنوان علت مرگ قرار گرفتند و مجبور شدند با تودیع وثیقه ۴ میلیارد تومانی، پیکر او را شبانه و با حضور محدود به خاک بسپارند.
