The FARS semi -official Iranian agency reports that among those involved in the court are the former Deputy Minister of Foreign Minister Mohsen Aminzade, former representative of the government Abolla Ramazanzade and the former Minister of Industry Behzad Nabava. Hatam, who advocates for reform, served as president from 1997 to 2005.
