Gholamreza Khoshroo Kurdieh

Gholamreza Khoshroo Kuran Kurdieh was arrested in the Punak area of West Tehran's 10th district on July 22, 1997. After his transfer, it was revealed that he had killed the girls and young women.

On August 22, 1997, he walked down the canopy while writing on the paper: "I am not indebted to anyone, and I am not a creditor and I ask forgiveness for all." And when he received 214 lashes, Kurdieh was hanged in a warehouse near the Azadi Stadium.

He began his murder series connected with thefts and rapes in Tehran in 1992. He was arrested, but escaped, before being arrested again in 1997 and executed for 9 murders. In court, he only confessed to a single case of car theft and stolen property, considering the murders to be personal work.

He was arrested several times, but repeatedly deceived the authorities by giving them different names. In 1992, after several young girls complained that two men stole their money and raped them, the police launched an extensive investigation. After several days of pursuit, they arrested the perpetrators after an armed conflict. The two perpetrators, Ali Karimi and Gholamreza Kurdieh, who identified himself as "Murad Naderi", confessed to multiple cases of rape and armed robbery in interrogations.

Gholamreza Khoshroo Kuran Kurdieh (Persian: غلامرضا خوشرو کوران کردیه; December 1, 1965 – August 22, 1997) was an Iranian serial killer known as the "Night Bat".

On December 1, 1965, Kurdieh was born in Faruj. He got married in Tehran, but following a disturbance, separated from his wife and returned to North Khorasan. He was arrested in 1982 on robbery charges in Nishapur, and was subsequently detained for allegedly spying for Russia.
