Esmail Ahmadi Moqaddam, the commander of the Iranian regime’s suppressive State Security Forces (SSF) said, “These satellite networks want to change our culture, and when the effects of decay and implosion spread throughout the country, we will then be attacked militarily.” The mullahs’ SSF chief also made a veiled reference to the widespread hatred of the Iranian people towards the regime’s state-run TV, saying, “Some of the failures can be attributed to our own TV and radio broadcast, which should provide better coverage to curb the growth of satellites in the country.” “There are even some remote areas in the mountainside and some tribes where electric motors are used to be able to watch satellite programming,” he added.

Saeed Malekpour an Iranian Canadian Sentenced to death for Moharebeh

The 28th branch of the Revolutionary Court has sentenced Saeed Malekpour to death for Moharebeh (waging war against God) and corrupting the earth. RAHANA reported: Malekpour’s wife, Fatemeh Eftekhari, stated that he has been served with the verdict in the Evin Prison on Saturday. His death sentence has been issued for cyber crimes. He had been held in prison limbo for the past 2 years. Previously, in a letter to the Head of the Judiciary, his wife had stated that she had found out that Malekpour will be sentenced to death after a conversation Malekpour’s lawyer has had with Judge Moghiseh. She had mentioned that he has made false confessions under torture after being held in solitary confinement for a year. She had also stated that the trial was only 15 minutes long which shows that the verdict had been issued without an opportunity for Malekpour to present his defense. Vahid Asghari is a co-defendant in this case who may also receive a death sentence. He has been held in temporary detention for months. In a television show by the name of “Shock” which was aired 2 years ago, Judge Jafari had stated that they will be sentenced to death.
