Biography[edit]
In 1994, at a ceremony held due to the screening of a Babak film at the Museum of Iranian Cinema, Akbar Khorramdin went on stage and spoke only of himself; he was chemically treated twice and cracked four times because he was an infantryman and spent 69 months on the battlefield with Iraq. He also said that he had been away from his family for 17 years out of 30 years of service.[1]
He also said: "In the name of God, the Teacher, and in the name of the martyrs of the Eight-Year War, and greetings to the honor of those martyrs who defended the country." "I am a colonel in the Khorramdin headquarters. I served for 30 years, I was in the operational areas for 69 months, I was chemically treated twice and I was left with four fragments, and I am happy to have served in the country."
Murder of Babak Khorramdin[edit]
Babak Khorramdin was born in 1974 in Tehran and had a master's degree in cinema from the Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Tehran, and graduated in 2009. He left for London in 1989 as a student and returned to Iran after a while.[2]
Babak was murdered by his parents in Ekbatan, Tehran, on May 15, 2021. The next day,[3][4] after parts of his mutilated body were found by a municipal worker in Ekbatan, the police arrested his parents as suspect. The parents eventually confessed to killing their son.[5]
On May 17, Akbar Khorramdin, his father, confessed that he had given anesthesia to his son with the help of his wife, and after anesthesia, they killed him and left the body in a garbage bin in phase 3 of Ekbatan, Ariashahr and Sanat Square.[6] Akbar Khorramdin stated that the motive for his son's murder was harassment and ill-treatment of the victim by his parents.[7]
Murder of his daughter and son-in-law[edit]
On May 19, Khorramdin's parents confessed that their son-in-law, Faramarz, and daughter, Arezoo, had been murdered, dismembered, and dumped in the same way in 2011 and 2018, respectively.[8][9] They said that the reason to kill their son-in-law was that he had "moral problems" and the reason for their daughter's murder was "alcohol and drug use and contact with strangers".[10] According to officials, a psychiatrist confirmed the mental health of the two.[11]
Procedures[edit]
After finding a part of a mutilated body in Ekbatan town, the criminal police identified Babak Khorramdin's body based on his fingerprint, and after examining the videos recorded on CCTV cameras, the parents of the director were arrested and confessed to the murder. . The two also confessed during interrogation that they had killed their son-in-law and daughter in 2011 and 2018.
Hamshahri newspaper wrote hours before the announcement of judicial and law enforcement officials about the confession of Babak Khorramdin's parents to the murder of their daughter and son-in-law that "one of the ambiguities that complicate the murder of cinema director Babak Khorramdin is the disappearance of his sister Arezoo "It's already an issue that the police and the criminal team are currently investigating, and it may take the case into a new phase."
Meanwhile, Mohammad Shahriari, the head of Tehran's criminal court, said that Akbar Khorramdin said that Faramarz, his daughter Arezoo's husband, "had moral problems and killed Babak in the same way he killed Babak in 2011 and moved his body out of the house." "He threw it in the trash."
Akbar and Iran Khorramdin have stated that they also killed their daughter Arezoo in 2018 "in the same way as Babak was killed for consuming alcohol and drugs and communicating with strangers."
A relative of the Khorramdin family, who did not want to be named, told Iran International that he last saw Arezoo in July and August 2011, after which his mother said that Arezoo had gone to Turkey and then taken refuge in Canada.
According to him, Arezoo had married Faramarz in 2010, but later they said that there was no news about Faramarz. The head of the Tehran Criminal Court said that Arezoo was married before marrying Faramarz and had separated from her husband in 2009.
According to Shahriari, Afshin and Azar are the other children of this family and are younger than Babak and Arezoo. He added: "Babak Khorramdin's father has more national than religious thoughts and even changed his last name because he belongs to Babak Khorramdin. "He also says that he had the right to kill Babak because of his moral corruption, and he believes that one should be pure."
Akbar Khorramdin said: "My son was single. "Because of the differences we had, I anesthetized him on Sunday morning with anesthesia and then stabbed him to death. I tore his body out of the house and threw it in the nearest street bin."
Hossein Rahimi, commander of the Greater Tehran police force, also said that after the murder of their son-in-law and daughter-in-law, Babak Khorramdin's parents claimed that their son-in-law and daughter-in-law were living abroad if they had been killed inside the country.
Akbar Khorramdin had previously said about the reason for Babak's murder: "Babak suddenly changed his behavior and behavior 5 or 6 years ago and changed his mind. I was tired of his work. He was bothering me and his mother a lot. His thoughts did not match ours. "He does things that were not in line with my principles at all."
