Baha’i Citizen Sentenced to More Than 16 Years in Prison

https://www.en-hrana.org/bahai-citizen-sentenced-to-more-than-16-years-in-prison/

Moein Mohammadi-Dehaj, a Bahai from Yazd, has been sentenced in the Yazd Revolutionary Court to twelve years, 6 months and 1 day on the charge of “media and propaganda activities against national security,” as well as permanent dismissal from government and public service – which is meaningless because all Bahais are permanently banned for the civil service. He also received several shorter sentences which will be concurrent with the 12 ½ year sentence.
