Bahram Rawhání
From Bahaipedia
Bahram Seroosh Rawhání (d. March, 1951) was a Persian Bahá’í who was martyred.
Background[edit]
Rawhání was born into a Parsi family and established himself in Taft, Iran, at some point. In March 1951 a young man was found dead in the town and people opposed to the Bahá’í Faith spread rumors he had been murdered by the Bahá’í community stimulating persecution which resulted in two Bahá’ís being assaulted and Bahá’í homes and properties being looted.[1]
Rawhání submitted a complaint to the local police about the treatment of the Bahá’ís. The day he submitted the complaint he was attacked while returning home and stabbed to death.[1]
