The Revolutionary Court sentenced Amir-Emad Mirmirani (known as Jadi) to six years in prison. Mirmirani was arrested for his social media posts during recent nationwide protests.

According to HRANA, the news agency of Human Rights Activists, Amir-Emad Mirmirani was sentenced to six years in prison.

The Revolutionary Court of Tehran sentenced Mirmirani to five years for “assembly and collusion against national security” and one year for “propaganda against the regime.” Mirmirani’s content published on social media was presented as an example of the charges mentioned above. If this verdict is upheld on appeal, five years for “assembly and collusion,” as the account with the severest punishment, will be enforceable to him.

In October of this year, Mirmirani was arrested and jailed at Great Tehran Penitentiary, where he was held for 70 days until he was released on bail.

Mirmiran is a software developer and educator in the field of Free and open-source software and Linux.
