Under international pressure, Iran fired the head of its cybercrimes unit, known as FATA, over the case of the Iranian blogger Sattar Beheshti who was murdered while in police custody.
The state-run Mehr news agency said Kamal Hadianfar was fired due to ‘failure and lack of sufficient supervision over the performance of personnel under his command.’
Sattar Beheshti died in police custody and wounds were found on his body.
