In particular, national activist Abbas Lisani was sentenced to 8 years, and Kazim Safabakhsh - 13 years in prison.

In addition, despite the expiration of the 3-year sentence, Siamek Mirayi has not yet been released.

Hamid Allahverdi was arrested for 7 months, and Sahang Maalia - for 10 months.

The media Yol-Press and Açıq Yol are closed, as further stated in the resolution.
