Ahmadreza Amani was a 28-year-old Lor man from Azna, Lorestan Province, a law graduate of Yazd University and a legal trainee with the Yazd Bar Association. Hengaw Organization for Human Rights verified that around 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, 1 January 2026 (11 Dey 1404), during street protests in Azna, Iranian government forces shot him in the chest with live ammunition.
He was rushed to hospital but died shortly afterward from severe internal bleeding. Hengaw reported that he was the fourth protester killed in Azna that day, and that authorities initially refused to hand his body over to the family. BBC Persian independently verified his identity among early Dey 1404 / January 2026 victims in Azna, alongside Taha Safari, Reza Moradi Abdolvand, Mostafa Falahi, and Shayan Asadollahi.
