September 7, 2026; Following the publication of the image of "Seyed Ezzatoddin Seyed-Taheri"—accused of murder and the perpetrator of violence and rape against "Niloofar Mojavar"—another woman who states she fell victim to his violence, torture, and sexual assault years ago has shared her account with Kurdpa. This woman states that years ago, "Seyed Ezzatoddin Seyed-Taheri" held her in an unsuitable and inhumane location—much like Niloofar—depriving her of food and water for nearly two weeks and pushing her to the brink of death through beatings, severe torture, and repeated rapes. Following her release, she was hospitalized for weeks due to severe bodily infections across her entire body.
Kurdpa emphasizes that in publishing this account and exposure, to protect the victim's safety, many details, indicators, and explanations that could potentially lead to her identification are being withheld. These include the victim's social status, age, place of residence, how the perpetrator accessed the victim, as well as the exact name of the location, the objects used to rape the victim, and detailed representations of the specific torture methods. These details are vivid enough that they could reveal the victim's identity; hopefully, a day will come when the narrator can recount everything in safety.
One day after the exposure regarding the violence, torture, and rape inflicted upon "Niloofar Mojavar," efforts on social media led to the dissemination and circulation of the image of the perpetrator of torture and violence, "Seyed Ezzatoddin Seyed-Taheri." This occurred while the collective psychological well-being of society, particularly women, was severely traumatized by the images published of Niloofar, and reports indicated the suspect had fled. Concurrently, prior records involving dozens of cases of violence and even the murder of women by the suspect were exposed.
During this time, one of the victims of violence, torture, and rape by "Seyed Ezzatoddin Seyed-Taheri," in an interview with Kurdpa, provided images and documentation of her tortured body, along with hospital admission records, medical tests, and evaluations, recounting the violence inflicted upon her by this individual.
The victim—who recognized "Seyed Ezzatoddin Seyed-Taheri" after his image was published—began her account as follows:
"This [Seyed Ezzatoddin Seyed-Taheri] was the same man who, years ago, subjected me to torture, violence, and rape just like Niloofar. In many places, people have written that they do not know how [Niloofar] was tortured. I wanted to write under those posts explaining how she was tortured, what he brings upon us, and what he does to women, but I was afraid. I am afraid to post my experience under Niloofar's posts and be subjected to violence again. I have remained silent, just watching to see what people say, and you are the only person I have told."
With a trembling voice full of rage and fear, she continued:
"You see the blows inflicted on Niloofar's hands, feet, and head; do you know how he conducts these tortures? When he beat me, he would pour hot water and then cold water over my body, repeatedly continuing the beatings and torture using this method.
He tied my hands and feet on the dirt floor, beating me with a whip, a belt, and whatever was at hand, throwing dirt over my tortured and wounded body. He held me bound in a highly unsuitable and inhumane location for nearly two weeks. Like Niloofar, he deprived me of food and water, pouring his urine into my mouth instead.
He raped me repeatedly; himself and with tools that were at hand, he raped me with absolute violence vaginally and anally. He kicked my head to the point where I felt a depression forming in my skull. It was that painful. From the severity of the blows, my mouth filled with blood, and many of my teeth broke.
When I pleaded with him to have mercy and said 'for God's sake stop,' he would say 'mention God's name again so I rape you in front of your God.' When I said 'kill me,' he laughed and said 'no, I will humiliate you.'
He pulled and ripped out all the hair on my head, and my hair kept falling out for a long time afterward.
He inflicted every possible atrocity upon me and then, after days, dumped me while I was unconscious. I was found; my entire body was infected, and I was hospitalized for weeks.
Because of this person, I grew to despise myself many times; I was disgusted even by myself and my body."
When asked if we could write about this account, she said:
"Write it, and put the pictures of my tortured body as well. Thank God I lived to see the day he was exposed. After what he brought upon me, I haven't seen him since that year. Whenever I went outside, I always looked around, looking everywhere to see if I would run into him again..."
She continued: "What can I say and where do I start?"
"I have reached a point where nothing matters to me and I am not afraid of anything; I can stand against all the pain and torment. I am neither ashamed for people to know who I am, nor do I want to remain silent, but you know why I am forced to, hoping for the day I can recount everything I went through..."
Latest Status of Niloofar Mojavar's Case and New Information Regarding the Perpetrator of Her Murder and Violence
According to the latest information received by Kurdpa regarding "Seyed Ezzatoddin Seyed-Taheri," he is currently in custody in the city of Piranshahr, and Niloofar Mojavar's family is pursuing the case legally. Furthermore, all medical and hospital records in writing confirming the torture, rape, and violence against Niloofar have been submitted to the court for preliminary investigations.
A large number of individuals have stated to Kurdpa that nothing is beyond "Seyed Ezzatoddin Seyed-Taheri" and consider him affiliated with the government—referred to as "Jash" in Kurdistan. They ask how it is possible for an individual to commit such extreme violence against dozens of women without anyone daring to break the silence, allowing him to continue his actions unchecked.
"Seyed Anwar Seyed-Taheri," brother of "Seyed Ezzatoddin Seyed-Taheri," in an interview with the "Rudaw" media outlet in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, confirmed his brother's arrest while claiming he suffers from "internal issues." He revealed that over 10 years ago, his brother murdered his own wife in Naqadeh and served 6 years in prison for the crime. He also stated that his brother has had 18 to 19 wives, with most remaining with him for no longer than a week.
In the interview, when asked why the governmental and judicial institutions of the Islamic Republic treated his brother with such leniency and negligence, the suspect's brother replied: "I do not know." Without condemning his brother's actions and without the family answering why—even if their claim of "internal issues" were true—they took no action to seek treatment for him while dozens of women were victimized, he pointed accusations at Niloofar's mother, claiming she was aware of her daughter's relationship with his brother.
"Soheila Mehdizadeh," Niloofar's aunt, whose report on Niloofar's violence and murder Kurdpa previously published, states that the perpetrator's family is pointing fingers at Niloofar's mother. Condemning this action by the suspect's family, she stated that they have shown no accountability whatsoever, failing to offer any message of condolence or regret to Niloofar's family in any form. Niloofar's aunt emphasized that these claims are completely false and that the suspect's family is attempting to whitewash his actions.
Kurdpa considers the tragedy of Niloofar Mojavar's femicide and the fearful silence of other victims to be a direct result of structural impunity and the normalization of violence against women in the laws of the Islamic Republic. This anti-woman structure, through its lack of legal protection and the criminalization of victims, leaves women in a deadly impasse—where they can neither seek refuge in the judicial system nor possess the safety to break their silence. The state's deliberate inaction regarding repeat offenders renders the judiciary a direct accomplice to these atrocities.
