Operation Celtic: Police continue to investigate death of Abdulhassan Nabizadah

Police continue to investigate the death of Abdulhassan Nabizadah, a year on from when he was critically injured on Camperdown Road, Miramar.

Mr Nabizadah was assaulted and robbed around 12.30am on 17 March 2025, in what Police believe was part of a premeditated attack.

The offenders, who stole nothing more than his car keys, then callously left him bleeding and unconscious on the footpath.

No one has yet been held responsible for his killing, and police are committed to continue their pursuit of justice for the Nabizadah family.

The investigation team has gathered a significant amount of information and believe they know who is involved.

“We know the people responsible will have talked about the death with friends and family”, said Detective Senior Sergeant Tim Leitch.

“We ask those people tell us what they have heard. Any information, no matter how small may make the difference for investigators.

“Mr Nabizadah has been described as a gentle, caring man, and his family continue to grieve their loss of him. It is not too late to provide Mr Nabizadah’s family with answers – if you know something, we encourage you to speak with us.

“If you have any information that could assist the Operation Celtic investigation team, please get in touch with us online through 105.police.govt.nz, clicking “Update Report” or by calling 105.”

Please use the reference number 250317/6324, or reference Operation Celtic.
