Branch 15 of Tehran Revolutionary Court issued verdicts against 7 Gonabadi Dervish lawyers and managers of Majzooban Noor website (Nematollahi Gonabadi News Website which focuses on disseminating news about Dervishes). They have been collectively sentenced to 56 years in prison.
According to Majzooban Noor, seven Gonabadi Dervish lawyers and managers of Majzooban Noor website who have been arrested since Shahrivar 1390 (September 2011), after spending almost two years in prison without trial, have received a range of sentences between 10.5 and 7.5 years. Judge Abulghasem Salavati has issued these very heavy sentences in the cases of Gonabadi Dervishes.
According to the court’s verdicts, Hamid Reza Moradi Sarvestani (Majzooban Noor website manager and human-Dervish rights activist) was sentenced to 10 years and six months imprisonment, Reza Entesari ( photo journalist, webmaster and human-Dervish rights activist) to 8 years and six months imprisonment, Mostafa Daneshjou, Farshid Yadollahi, Amir Eslami, Omid Behroozi ( Lawyer, webmaster and human-Dervish rights activist) and Afshin Karampour (Juristic, webmaster and human-Dervish rights activist) were sentenced to seven and a half years in prison.
In additional penalty, their sentences were accompanied by a five year ban on membership in political parties, and also on engaging in activities in the fields of media and cyberspace.

They were all convicted of “mobilizing an illegal group as Majzooban Noor with the intent to disturb national security” , “propaganda against the regime”, “insulting the leadership” and “disturbing the public order”.

These sentences has been issued against these prisoners of conscience by Revolutionary Court while they have refused to attend their court trials, in protest of the court’s lack of qualification and the illegal process of their cases and even refused to provide any defense bill.
