According to the letter, Saeed Malekpour could defend himself "in the presence of a computer expert in court." He was detained for more than 12 months in solitary confinement "under all kinds of mental, psychological and physical torture." He told Tehran Revolutionary Court (Judge Moghiseh) that the confessions were obtained "under torture and psychological pressure." The judge did not accept his request for continued access to a lawyer and a computer expert. The confessions were broadcast on Tv, before the verdict issuance up to a year before the trial, "to destroy and insult the reputation of individuals." At the same time, only a 15-minute before trial, the judge told the lawyer that he had considered the death sentence. The audio file of Saeed Malekpour's statements includes cases of "violation of human rights" attached to the letter. Judicial officials have not responded to letters so far.
