Prison

According to the Human Rights House of Iran, there is no information about his arrest and the alleged charges. His summons order had taken place over the phone.[3]

Mahmoudi had been arrested during the Ashura events and was held in detention for 45 days. The charges against him are propaganda against the regime, insulting the leader, writing the song “I Confess...” and possessing a copy of Salman Rushdie's The Satanic Verses.

Mahmoudi has told his interrogators he acquired the controversial novel because he planned to publish a special article on the anniversary of the death sentence issued by Ayatollah Khomeini against Rushdie.[4]

Mahmoudi was arrested for more than a month during the protests that followed the disputed re-election of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and were released on a 300,000 Dollars.[5][6][7]
