Had celebrated the World Cup from “Team Mullah”: friend of an Iranian international was shot

“After the bitter loss of last night, the news of your death has set my heart on fire,” wrote soccer professional Saeid Ezatolahi on Instagram.

The national team player and Iran lost 1-0 to the USA at the World Cup in Qatar on Tuesday. That same evening, his friend Mehran Samak was killed in their hometown of Banzar Anzali. The human rights organization Human Rights reported that a 27-year-old had been killed in the port city northwest of Tehran because he had frenetically celebrated Iran’s World Cup exit.

The exact course of events is unclear, but various sources claim that Samak drove through the streets honking his horn to celebrate the failure of “Team Mullah”. Accordingly, regime supporters are said to have shot him.

Ezatolahi does not comment on the circumstances of his death, but writes: “One day the masks will fall and the truth will come out. This is not what our youth deserved. This is not what our nation deserves.”
