News about Rafsanjani’s daughter, sentenced to 5 years in prison. Last Minute WORLD headlines and events

Fazeh Hashemi, daughter of former Iranian President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, has been sentenced to 5 years in prison.

Tehran’s prosecutors filed a lawsuit against Hashemi last year on charges of “propaganda against the system,” according to Iran’s semi-official news agency ISNA. Mahsa Amini, 22, was abducted.

Rafsanjani’s daughter’s lawyer, Neda Shams, said in a statement on her Twitter account: “Fazeh Hashemi was sentenced to 5 years in prison after his arrest, but his sentence has yet to be handed down.”

Fazeh Hashemi was sentenced to prison and banned from politics in 2012 on charges of “anti-state propaganda”.

Fazeh Hashemi’s father, Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, died in 2017 from a heart attack.

Rafsanjani, who served as president from 1989 to 1997, was one of Khomeini’s closest names.

During his presidency, Rafsanjani pursued a policy of Tehran’s economic recovery after the Iran-Iraq war of 1980-88.

Although Rafsanjani lost his influence for a while due to conservatives who opposed the economic reforms he was implementing, he again came to the fore in Iranian politics as an influential figure after Hassan Rouhani became president.
