With the confirmation of Mansour Mansouri's identity, the count of executed Kurdish prisoners in Ilam Central Prison has gone up by two. Earlier, Hengaw had reported the execution of Moein Salahwarzi after 23 years of incarceration.

According to a report received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights on Monday, March 11, 2024, the executions of 58-year-old Moein Salahwarzi from Abdanan and Mansour Mansouri from Sarableh were carried out in Ilam Central Prison.
