— Belgian Financial Sanctions, 2026-03-20

Mohammad Movahedi-Azad is Prosecutor General and has held a series of important offices in Iran’s judicial system, especially in Tehran.

— EU Financial Sanctions Files (FSF), 2026-03-20

Mohammad Movahedi-Azad est procureur général et a occupé une série de fonctions importantes dans le système judiciaire iranien, en particulier à Téhéran. Au cours de sa carrière professionnelle, il a prononcé et maintenu des peines injustes, en particulier à l’encontre de manifestants et de minorités, a cherché à réprimer la dissidence et la liberté d’expression, et a supervisé la torture. Lors des manifestations à l’échelle nationale en Iran qui ont débuté en décembre 2025, en sa qualité de procureur général, il a menacé les manifestants de la peine de mort pour “guerre contre Dieu” et a appelé à saisir leurs avoirs. Mohammad Movahedi-Azad est donc responsable de graves violations des droits de l’homme en Iran.
