Ghorbanali Dorri-Najafabadi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ayatollah Ghorbanali Dorri-Najafabadi (قربانعلی دری نجفآبادی) is an Iranian politician and cleric, previously the Minister of Intelligence of Iran. He is the current head of Iran's administrative court.
During his term of ministership, some journalists and reformist politicians were murdered by security agents, which the Iranian government later announced were self-organized. Nonetheless, Dorri-Najafabadi resigned and was succeeded by Ali Younessi. The events were later named the "Chained Murders" by the reformist government of Mohammad Khatami.
After Mohammad Ismaeil Shooshtari, in 2005, he was the attorney-general of the Islamic Republic of Iran.[1][2] He has been succeeded by Jamal Karimi-Rad.
