Here a report of Majzooban Noor says that the Revolutionary Court of Shiraz, in his recent decision, has converted the deportation penalty and a lifelong rejection to the life imprisonment of Mohammad Ali Shamshirzan, a dervish of Nematollahi Gonabadi who is in the jail of city Bandar Abbas, a port city in Southern Iran.
According to this report, the judge of the Enforcement of Orders of the Revolutionary Court of Shiraz to expound his decision said that ” regarding the imprisonment of Mohammad Ali Shamshirzan and the determination of the specific amount of conviction for Mohammad Ali Shamshirzan, Kazem Dehghan, and Hamidreza Arayesh declares that in the punishment of deportation the minimum is determined and there is no limit for that until the repentance of convicts is obvious.”
Also according to this report, this judicial authority has also ordered the custody of other Kavar (a county in Fars Province in Iran)) dervishes that have been sentenced to exile.
Mohammad Ali Shamshirzan, Kazem Dehghan and Hamid Arayesh have been banished, life exile, to Bandar Abbas, Zahedan and Ahvaz, respectively, on the basis of the verdict of the Revolutionary Court of Shiraz on charges of “Moharebeh” (war against God).
It is pertinent to mention that Mohsen Esmaili, Mohammad Ali Sadeghi, Ebrahim Bahrami and Mohammad Ali Dehghan have been exiled to Dezful, Zabol, Maragheh and Sardasht, respectively for seven years. This verdict was also confirmed by the Supreme Court.
Mohammad Ali Shamshirzan was exiled to Bandar Abbas in Spring 94 (2015) and on December 18 of last year when he’d gone to the local police department for the daily check-in, was arrested and is still imprisoned in Bandar Abbas, despite his deteriorating physical condition and the emergency need for the especial cardiac care.
Regarding the Article 284 of the Islamic Penal Code, Mohareb remains in exile until repent. It’s been some years that the Iranian judiciary by resorting a Fatwa from the Supreme Leader, holds the convicted who have been sentenced to exile in jail that is conspicuously in contrary to Islamic law, norms and principles of criminal law.
