The late Iranian journalist Rouhollah Zam was not told of his execution date in advance of the event, according to a post on an Instagram account purportedly belonging to his father.
Rouhollah Zam was hanged on Saturday after Iran s supreme court upheld a death sentence passed in June over his role in protests during the winter of 2017-2018, among other charges.
At least 25 people were killed during the unrest in December 2017 and January 2018 that was sparked by economic hardship.
Mohammad Ali Zam, a cleric who served in high-ranking government positions in the 1980s, said he had met his son a day before his execution, which Rouhollah was not told had been confirmed.
