Heshmat Taleqani

Dr. Ebrahim Heshmat ol Atebba Talequani (also Dr. Heshmat-e Taleghani) (Persian: ابراهیم حشمت الاطبا طالقانی) was an Iranian physician and one of Mirza Kuchak Khan's closest friends and allies during the Jangal movement in the Gilan province of northern Iran.

In the campaign against the movement initiated by Ahmad Shah's court in 1918–1919, the central government promised amnesty for the "Jangali" leaders who would surrender.

Dr. Heshmat himself put the rope around his neck and despite the audience's sympathy for his bravery, his life was not spared.

The Jangal movement took off after this temporary defeat and resulted in the formation of the Persian Socialist Soviet Republic.

Ebrahim Fakhrayi describes in detail a memorable ceremony at his tomb in May 1920 by Mirza Kuchak Khan who was victorious at the time and attended by many people in Rasht.
