The family of an executed Christian pastor said his grave was bulldozed by Iranian authorities last month.

Rev. Hussein Soodmand is the only Christian pastor to have been confirmed to have been formally executed by the Iranian regime. He was executed in December 1990 and buried at the Beheshte-Reza cemetery in Mashhad.
