Iranian hardliner Hamid Resai jailed over posts against officials

Original: Hamid Resai, one of the extremist in IRI is in prison He was charged for spreading "fabricated lies" about the governmen

Hamid Resai, described as an extremist supporter of the Islamic Republic of Iran, has been imprisoned on charges of spreading "fabricated lies" about the government and officials. The charges relate to posts made about two and a half years ago, in which he published documents alleging that Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and other former IRGC heads used their connections to deceive members of the public.

Why now: An insider loyalist being prosecuted for attacking senior Iranian figures is unusual, drawing attention to factional infighting within the Islamic Republic.
