On Monday, the Revolutionary Guards praised the judiciary for its tough stand and encouraged it to quickly and decisively issue judgments for defendants accused of “crimes against the security of the nation and Islam.” Authorities have been repressing the protests.
Masoud Setayeshi, a spokesman for the judiciary, made the announcement on Tuesday that five people indicted in the murder of Rouhollah Ajamian, a member of the Basij militia, were given the death penalty in a decision that they can appeal.
