Several sources familiar with the matter told Iran International that on Monday, the fifth of Mordad, an iron scaffold was installed at Aliqhani Square in Isfahan, and given the deployment of security forces around it, concern about the execution of several protesters from Dey in public has increased.

The so-called Aliqhani Isfahan Square case involves 10 defendants who have been sentenced to death. A source close to the family of Amirhossein Safri, one of the defendants in this case, told Iran International that his family has been summoned to prison for a final visit. Abolfazl Sepahi and Alireza Sepahi, two other detainees who are also sentenced over the protests of Dey, are also in imminent danger of having their sentences carried out. In the past week, Gol Mohammad Mohammadi and Erfan Esfandiari were executed in this case.

The Aliqhani Isfahan Square case is related to the protests of 18 Dey in this city, which officials of the government say resulted in the deaths of four Basij forces and special unit personnel in clashes in that area.
