Alireza Noori

Alireza Noori (or sometimes Ali-Reza Nouri) (Persian: علیرضا نوری ‎‎, born in Isfahan, died October 31, 2002) was a member of the 6th Iranian parliament and a supporter of President Mohammad Khatami's reform programs. He was the brother of Abdollah Noori. Dr. Alireza Noori was educated in medicine and was a practicing physician before entering politics.

Noori was killed in a car accident in northern Iran during his term in the parliament. Allegations of conspiracy surrounded the tragic accident in which another reformist member of the parliament, Masoud Hashemi Zehi, from Khash, Sistan-Baluchistan, was also killed.
