Tehran - Iranian Journalist Ruholla Zam who was convicted for inciting sedition during the anti-government protest in 2017 was executed on Saturday.


Iran's supreme court on December 8 upheld the death sentence of Zam, who was captured in 2019 after a period of excile.  His Amadnews had more than 1 million followers.

Local broadcaster said on Saturday, "  Zam, the director of counter-revolutionary Amadnews network, was hung this morning."

France and other Human Rights group have condemned Iran Supreme court for handling down the death sentence of Zam who was being highly critical against the government.

Iranian officials have accused the United States, Saudi Arabia and  oppositions who are living in exile of aggravating incite among protesters during the unrest of late 2017 which was triggered nationwide economic struggles.


Officials said that around 21 demonstrators were killed and hundreds got arrested.  Such unrest was considered as the worst in Iran  that took place in decades and followed by protests that were far more grim last year fueled by price inflation.
