The Iranian government arrested Jam, who was in exile abroad in October last year, claiming that Jam instigated anti-government protests and spread false information. Jam was sentenced to death at the first trial in June, and was confirmed by the Iranian Supreme Court on the 8th and the sentence was executed on the 12th.
