They were returning from their farm in Dashtabi district in Ardaq, Qazvin Province. A police patrol car becomes suspicious of them and tracks their path. their car. The police patrol car gets stuck in mud and can no longer proceed with its chase. Therefore, the security forces decided to open fire at the car in which Mehrdad was sitting in. Without any warning they shot towards the passengers and killed the young teenager. 

Sergeant Ali Mahmoudi Nejad, who fired at the moving vehicle, killed 17-year-old Mehrdad Malek with a shot to his head. Mehrdad Malek was buried today in Ardaq, Qazvin. His funeral ceremony will be held tomorrow, Thursday, December 29, 2022. The Malek family, and mostly Mehrdad’s father, were pressured by Iran’s authorities to accept all circumstances before receiving their son’s body.
