Iran’s execution of journalist Ruhollah Zam, briefly explained Vox.com 12/12/2020 Cameron Peters © Ali Shirband/Mizan News/AFP/Getty Images Ruhollah Zam, an Iranian journalist, speaks at Iran’s Revolutionary Court shortly before his execution. Iranian journalist Ruhollah Zam, whose reporting helped spur large anti-government protests, was executed by Iran on Saturday morning, according to reports by state media. Zam, 47, was found guilty of “corruption on earth” and sentenced to death in June 2020. The sentence was upheld by Iran’s Supreme Court on Tuesday this week, shortly before his execution. The vague charge of “corruption on earth” is often used “in cases involving espionage or attempts to overthrow Iran’s government,” Al Jazeera reported Saturday.
