In September 2017, the Majzooban-e Noor website reported that the Shiraz Revolutionary Prosecutor's Office had increased Shamshirzan’ s lifelong exile sentence to life imprisonment.*
According to Ali Khamenei’s fatwa, people who are sentenced to exile on the charge of moharebeh must spend their time in exile without the possibility of interacting with others. This fatwa, as well as the citation of Shiraz judges to Article 284 of the Islamic Penal Code, which makes the termination of domestic exile conditional on repentance, practically turned the lifelong exile sentence of the Dervishes into life imprisonment.
