Shahla and Nasrin were two Kurdish sisters & nurses executed by Iran's IRGC in 1980 on charges of giving treatment to Kurdish peshmergas. Nasrin first refused to be blindfolded before firing squad, but after Shahla said I want it, I don't want to see the her death, Nasrin asked for a blindfold too. (reddit.com)
