the reformist site Mowjcamp announced that the Tehran Revolutionary Court had issued a fourth death sentence in the trials of protestors who held demonstrations after the re-election of President Mahmuh Ahmadinejad.
Hamed Ruhinejad was found guilty of having links to a monarchist organisation, like two others protestors who had previously been sentenced to death.
According to Mowjcamp, Ruhinejad was arrested before the elections on June 12 and sentenced to death on October 10 by Section 28 of the Revolutionary Court, presided over by Justice Moqisem. His case was connected to that of Mohammad Reza Ali Zamani, the first protestor sentenced to death, which Mowjcamp announced on October 8.
"Both were already arrested before the elections and were made to appear and confess in trials following the protests to scare the other accused."
Mowjcamp also released the names of the other two sentenced to death: Arash Rahmanpur and Nasser Abdolhosseini. Their names were not amongst the initials A.P. and M.E provided on October 10 by the Justice Department of Tehran Province. The initials M.Z. could have referred to Mohammad Reza Ali Zamani).
