Kosoof has published a recent photo of Abbas Amir Entezam, former deputy Prime Minister, ambassador and the longest held political prisoner in Iran. The blogger adds in December 1979, he was charged with “treason and spying for foreign governments”. He was arrested afterwards and sentenced to life imprisonment in the Revolutionary Courts, without the due process of an attorney or a jury.
