Ali Aghajani (Persian: علی آقاجانی) was a 26-year-old man originally from Takestan in Qazvin Province who lived in Tehran. Hengaw Organization for Human Rights verified that on Friday evening, 19 Dey 1404 (9 January 2026), Iranian government forces shot him in the neck in front of Al-Rasoul Mosque in Tehran's Shahr-e Ziba neighbourhood; he died instantly.
Hengaw sources reported that during the crackdown, government forces had positioned themselves on the rooftop of Al-Rasoul Mosque and opened fire on protesters from above. His death certificate falsely cited a "traffic accident" as the cause of death, and his body was later buried in a village in Takestan.
Hengaw named him in the same identity report as other Tehran victims of those days, including Majid Astir, Alireza Javaheripi, Amir Ahmadi and Mobin Ghanbari.
