- "Azam-ol-Sadat Golgun", paternal aunt of "Sorena Golgun", an 18-year-old young man who was killed by forces of the Islamic Republic in the protests in "Shahsavar", says at her nephew's mourning ceremony, addressing the security forces present at the ceremony: "You who shoot, don't you have children? This child's blood will not be trampled." She is the sister of two "martyrs" of the Iran–Iraq war, Mohammad and Mostafa Golgun. Mojtaba Golgun was also a "disabled veteran" of the same war, who died a few years ago. Now forces of the Islamic Republic have killed "Sorena", the university student and only child of this well-known family, who had gone into the street to protest. Sorena's aunt was also summoned to the intelligence security body during the "Woman, Life, Freedom" revolution because of her presence at protests, and is currently under pressure from security forces. His body was taken hostage, and the family is under heavy security pressure.
