People commemorate Iranian-German Jamshid Sharmahd during a protest following his execution in Iran, near the Foreign Ministry in Berlin, Germany, Monday, Oct. 28, 2024. “Without a doubt, the divine promise regarding the supporters of terrorism will be fulfilled, and this is a definite promise,” the judiciary said in announcing his execution. Sharmahd was sentenced to death in 2023.Sharmahd’s daughter, Gazelle Sharmahd, criticized both Germany and the U.S. for failing him in a post on the social platform X.
“We made it crystal clear to Tehran time and again that the execution of a German national would have severe consequences,” Baerbock said. She didn’t elaborate on what those might be. However, Amnesty noted that Sharmahd ran a website for the Kingdom Assembly of Iran and its Tondar militant wing that included claims of"responsibility for explosions inside Iran,” though he repeatedly denied being involved in the attacks.
Sharmahd’s family received the last message from him on July 28, 2020. It’s unclear how the abduction happened. But tracking data showed Sharmahd’s mobile phone traveled south from Dubai to the city of Al Ain on July 29, crossing the border into Oman. On July 30, tracking data showed the mobile phone traveled to the Omani port city of Sohar, where the signal stopped.
