During his time as Minister of Justice, prison conditions within Iran fell well below accepted international standards, and there was widespread mistreatment of prisoners. In addition, he played a key role in threatening and harassing the Iranian diaspora by announcing the establishment of a special court to deal specifically with Iranians who live outside the country. He also oversaw a sharp increase in the number of executions in Iran, including secret executions not announced by the government, and executions for drug-related offences.</justification></removed></modification></target><target ssid="103567"><sanctions-set-id>13065</sanctions-set-id><individual sex="male"><identity ssid="103570" main="true"><name ssid="103571" name-type="primary-name" quality="good" lang="eng"><name-part order="1" name-part-type="family-name"><value>Goudarzi</value></name-part><name-part order="2" name-part-type="given-name"><value>Davoud</value></name-part><name-part order="3" name-part-type="further-given-name"><value>Moazami</value></name-part></name><nationality ssid="103572"><country iso-code="IR">Iran</country></nationality></identity><justification ssid="103568">Davoud Moazami Goudarzi is the Head of Greater Tehran’s Cyber Police, part of Iran’s Cyber Police.
