Memorial story
Amir-Ali Pahlavanzadeh
Amir-Ali Pahlavanzadeh (Persian: امیرعلی پهلوانزاده) was a deaf teenager, a Turk whose family came from Ardabil, who lived in the Talaiyeh neighbourhood of Qarchak in Tehran Province. Witness Report and the Ejtem memorial record him as 16 (born 1388 / 2010). Iran International's Javidnaman memorial and Names of Iran give 15, and the PMOI/NCRI list of 450 additional names gives 20, so the sources disagree on his age.
