Mohammad Jafarpoor

Mohammad Jafarpoor (Persian: محمد جعفرپور) was about 25, a final-year master's student in computer engineering at Iran University of Science and Technology, a graduate of the University of Isfahan, and active in artificial intelligence and data science. Friends remembered a santoor player fluent in English, German and Chinese, a strong swimmer, and the only son of his family. Iran International reported he had received an invitation from Germany but hesitated to leave Iran.

On the evening of Friday, 19 Dey 1404 (9 January 2026), in Sedeh (Khomeynishahr) in Isfahan Province, he was hit by two bullets. His family searched the streets and centers until about 04:00, thinking he had been arrested; on Sunday afternoon they were told he had died. Medical records say he died in hospital a few hours after the shots; his body was returned on Thursday, 25 Dey 1404 (15 January 2026). Mourners at his funeral wore white scarves as a sign of freedom. Hengaw had listed him with Amirhossein Nadafi and Hamid Shahin among Shahinshahr-area dead when identities were confirmed; Javidnaman places him in the Khomeynishahr area.
