Dana Matouri, a 26-year-old Arab rapper from Abadan, is reportedly at serious risk of execution after being arrested during the January 2026 protests (Dey 1404).

He was detained at his home and is said to be held without access to a lawyer or clear information about his charges. Unofficial reports claim his family has been told that an execution sentence has been issued, though no formal details have been confirmed.
With other death sentences linked to the January protests, concerns for his life are growing. Human rights advocates are calling for urgent attention and protection of his legal rights.
