Seyed Mehdi Sadati

As Governor of Robat Karim, and chairman of the City Security Council, he was responsible for the mass detention of protesters, and ordering the use of deadly weapons against protesters. This killed at least 6 protesters and injured dozens of others in Robat Karim during the November 2019 protests. 

The nationwide  protests of 2019, known as the protests of November 2019, were a series of large-scale popular demonstrations against the Iranian government, which began on November 15, 2019 in protest of the tripling of gasoline prices and quickly turned into anti-government protests that spread to 29 provinces in more than 100 cities across the country.  According to Amnesty International, at least 304 people were killed in the protests.
