 The Minister of Intelligence and Security (MOIS), Gholam-Hossein
Mohseni Eje'i, has a long record of atrocities in the past 26 years,
including the sentencing of thousands of political prisoners to death
in Kangaroo, in which he presided as a religious judge.
He represented the Revolutionary Prosecutor's Office in the MOIS and
played an active role in the arrest and execution of the Mojahedin and
other dissidents in the 1980s. As the chief judge in branch three of
the Islamic Revolutionary Court, Mohseni Eje'i personally sentenced to
death thousands of political prisoners.
He was appointed as the Acting Prosecutor in 1995 and as the Prosecutor
in 1998 for the Special Tribunal for Clergy, where he personally took
part in the sentencing, imprisonment and execution of hundreds of
dissident clerics. Mohseni Eje'i was also directly involved in the
"chain murders" and issued the fatwa for the murder of one of the
victims, Pirouz Davani, who was imprisoned at the time of his death.
