Mohammad Mahdi Faghihi

In 1999, he was the publisher of Entekhab newspaper. In 2004, after he left Entekhab, he took on several smaller posts and private sector jobs. During the 2009 Iranian presidential elections, he seriously criticized the government and strongly supported by Mir Hossein Mousavi. He was commended for transforming the political opposition since the first newsbreak of widespread election fraud, for his public outcry.

For two months after the election these comments were censored. The Ahmadinejad government filtered Entekhab news 12 times, and Tehran prosecutor Saeed Mortazavi was arrested, but the site has since restarted its activities.
