Farshad Ahmadi, a citizen of Dehloran, has been sentenced to 2 years of imprisonment and 5 years of suspended prison by the 15th branch of the Islamic Revolutionary Court in Tehran, headed by Judge Salavati, known as the Judge of Death, for the charge of "gathering and collusion against national security."

According to the report received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, the verdict issued by the Revolutionary Court of Tehran for Farshad Ahmadi, a former political prisoner, has only 10 days set for an appeal.
