ICBPS- The Intelligence Organization of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced the arrest of an Iranian Monarchist dissident in northern Iran.
One of the crimes he has been accused of is supporting the campaign called Boycott Iran Sham Elections.
IRGC Karbala Division in Mazandaran province said he was “one of the main leaders” who was associated with a diaspora Monarchist group.
The state-run news agencies, however, did not mention the name of the detainee in their reports.
The Islamic Revolutionary Courts have set up extrajudicial punishments against dozens of Iranian Monarchists in the past months for reportedly supporting the Monarchy after the IRGC Intelligence Organization and the Ministry of Intelligence arrested many dissidents who believe in Monarchy.
