- Stated grounds
- Seyed Majid Feiz Jafari is Chief of the Public Security Police. In this position he has played an active role in the violent suppression of peaceful protests. The Public Security Police systematically uses violence and methods of intimidation against protesters and activists, thereby violating their rights to freedom of expression and assembly. Seyed Majid Feiz Jafari is therefore responsible for serious human rights violations in Iran.
