Sedis Kashani (Persian: سدیس کشانی) was a 14-year-old Baloch boy from Zahedan in Sistan and Baluchestan. On Friday 8 Mehr 1401 (30 September 2022), Zahedan's Bloody Friday, he was hit by combat rounds when security forces opened fire on worshippers and protesters after Friday prayers around Makki Mosque and the Great Mosalla.

The Campaign for the Defence of Political and Civil Prisoners in its October 2022 rolls, Haalvsh's updated roll republished by Rasank in September 2023, and Persian Wikipedia all record him as 14. Persian Wikipedia lists him among the children shot that day, alongside Samer Hashemzehi, Javad Poosheh and Eqbal Shahnavazi. Rasank's anniversary profile of September 2023 remembers him together with Ali Barahui, a boy born in Khordad 1387 (June 2008) who was shot in the chest and neck the same day, and notes that at least 14 children were killed by direct fire on Bloody Friday; Haalvsh's updated roll counts at least 17 children among the dead of that day and the protests that followed.

On 7 Mehr 1403 (28 September 2024), on the eve of the second anniversary, Hamid Jalali Narouei staged a performance in his memory in Cologne, Germany, speaking in the voice of a 14-year-old Baloch boy who went to Friday prayers in Zahedan and never returned home.
