Mahdi Rahimian was notified of an act addressed to the Italian authorities by the magistrates of the ferocious Iranian regime, for an unspecified crime of fraud . The procedure started by the Ayatollahs' regime has opened the extradition process, the Court of Appeal of Sassari will be invested with the case and will have the final say.
Lawyer Alberto Sechi has accepted the task of assisting the Iranian businessman with dual citizenship (Iranian and Dutch).
