Iran Human Rights, September 22: According to the site "Iranian human rights activists" Iranian authorities have sentenced Ebrahim Mehrnahad (16) to 5 years of prison. Ebrahim mehrnahad, is charged with "attempts against the nations security" and was tried in a revolutionary court, without access to a defence lawyer. He is sentenced to five years of prison where two of them are going to be conditional.

He has been under detention, with physical and psychological torture since March this year.

It is believed that Ebrahims weblog activities, along with his role in mediating the news about his older brother Yaqub Mehrnahad have been decisive in his sentence.

Yaqub Mernahad, the older brother of Ebrahim, and a well known journalist and blogger, was executed in the prison of Zahedan on August 6. this year. Yaqub was also tried in a revolutionary court without access to lawyer.

Iranian authorities are trying to pass a new legislation according to which one could be sentenced to death charged with "internet crimes"!
