Iran’s Supreme Court has upheld the death sentence handed down to a man convicted in connection with the recent unrest and deadly riots in the country.

The Supreme Court said Mohammad Ghobadlou’s appeal was rejected.

A lower court found Ghobadlou guilty of running over several police forces during protests that erupted after the death of 22-year-old girl Mahsa Amini in police custody.

The A policeman died and several others were wounded after Ghobadlou plowed through them.
