A legal case has been filed against Faezeh Hashemi, the daughter of former president Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, the state-run Iranian Students News Agency reported, citing Tehran Prosecutor-General Abbas Jafari- Dolatabadi.

Dolatabadi declined to elaborate on the case, saying only that it’s been filed because of some media interviews Faezeh has given, according to ISNA.

Faezeh, has criticized Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and been arrested twice for joining anti-government rallies. In an interview with the magazine Foreign Policy last year, she accused the government of making up statistics and criticized Ahmadinejad’s handling of the country’s affairs.
