According to Houshang Pourbabai, Mr. Tajzadeh’s defense attorney, with the issuance of this new ruling, the total sentences against his client have increased to 17 years in prison.

Regarding that case, Fakhrossadat Mohtashamipour had stated that it was initiated by the IRGC Intelligence Organization and that Abolghasem Salavati has, since 2009, issued a new sentence against Mostafa Tajzadeh for the third time.
Mostafa Tajzadeh was arrested by security forces on July 8, 2022, and transferred to The Ministry of Intelligence’s detention facility, known as Ward 2-A of Evin Prison.
