In Iran, the Baha'i minority faces persecution even after death, with reports surfacing of mistreatment of their deceased. Additionally, Afghan citizens have claimed that their deceased relatives, who died in Iranian cities, underwent autopsy operations without consent, resulting in the removal of organs. A related issue has emerged in the military, where a watchdog report highlighted that the medical examiner retained hundreds of organs removed during autopsies, including brains and hearts, often without family members' knowledge or against their wishes.
