In relation to this gathering, a court case was filed for 25 people who were arrested. About two years later, among them, Akbar Abolzadeh, Ebrahim Nouri, and Saleh Mola Abbasi were sentenced to 10 months in prison and Esrafil Fethollahzadeh was sentenced to 10 months in prison on the charge of "Assembly and collusion to commit a crime against the security of the country through propaganda activity against the Islamic Republic of Iran" (Article 610). Morteza Shokri, Soleiman Kazemi, and Hamed Allahverdipour were sentenced to seven months in prison with the same charges. In the document issued by the judge of the Ahar Revolutionary Court, Mr. Ahrari, which was published by HRANA, it is stated that these seven people were involved in the "planning" of the rally and its "coordination" in the media and their "main intention" was to protest against the "the system and its policies regarding mother tongue education and other issues related to ethnicists". The ruling mentions the accusation as "assembly and collusion with the intention of committing crimes against national security", but considers the actions of these citizens as "propaganda activities against the system" and issued the verdict on this basis. This court acquitted Jalal Derogari, Majid Naghizadeh, Morteza Safari, Mehdi Zanjirbalaghi, Arash Jafari, Akbar Jahangiri, Alireza Changizi and Vahed Bastami, who "appeared at the gathering place to protest the insult of the Fatileh program" from the charge of "assembly and collusion to commit a crime."
