Resaei was alleged to have ******* an officer during the subsequent protests. His family, who maintain his innocence, were denied a final visit before his **********, which was carried out in secret.

“[Resaei] was the most voiceless of those *********. The EU and other countries did not protest his ********** a lot because the attention is elsewhere,” said Mansoura Shojaee, an Iranian women’s rights researcher and activist in the Netherlands.

“While global and domestic media attention have been focused on regional tensions with *******, the Iranian authorities have carried out the abhorrent arbitrary ********** in secret of a young man,” said Diana Eltahawy of Amnesty International.

According to Amnesty, Rasaei was subjected to ******** and other ill-treatment, including ******* *********, then sentenced to ****** in a sham trial.
