Majid Assadi, also known as مجید اسدی, is an Iranian political prisoner currently held in Gohardasht Prison in Iran. He was apprehended by Intelligence Ministry agents on February 18, 2017 and subsequently sentenced to six years in prison and two years in exile in Borazjan, Bushehr Province for charges related to "propaganda against the state" and "assembly and collusion against national security." This was not his first encounter with the judicial system, as he had previously been sentenced to four years in prison in March 2010.
