Yadollah Eslami was the editor in chief of Iranian newspaper Fath. Fath was shut down in 2000 after it had published an interview with Hussein-Ali Montazeri,[1] and in January 2001 Eslami was convicted of publishing lies and anti-state propaganda.[2] Fath was considered as the replacement of Khordad.
