Mostafa Karim Beigi was shot and killed on Ashura 2009 near Novell Lushato Street. For a long time, Mostafa's family believed that their son had been arrested. After weeks, they identified Mostafa Karim Beigi's body at the forensic office but were not allowed to bury him in Tehran. Ultimately, Mostafa Karim Beigi was buried in Shahriar. After the burial, his gravestone was also broken. The gravestone of Mostafa Karim Beigi was inscribed with 'Martyr of Ashura.' Mostafa Karim Beigi's family was the last family of victims that Zahra Rahnavard, the wife of Mir Hossein Mousavi, visited before her house arrest.
