      Biography


      Born in 1948, Namazi was the prosecutor-general for the judiciary of the Islamic Republic and received some notoriety in 2002 when he was criticized by the conservative newspaper Jumhuri Eslami, for "flagrantly" ignoring Supreme Leaders Ali Khamenei's order to review a death sentence handed down to Hashem Aghajari for apostasy for a speech he gave on Islam urging Iranians to "not blindly follow" Islamic clerics.
      Namazi died on 28 January 2024.
