Yesterday, the judiciary finally announced that it is looking into the death of Sattar Beheshti, the 35-year-old blogger who died days after he was arrested on October 30. The Report in Iran Website gives no further details, but in an interview with the Asr-e Iran website, the head of the Tehran Police force announced that the cyber police had been in charge of Beheshti's arrest. Hossein Sajedinia said that the blogger was arrested on the charge of committing cyber crimes.
