An Iranian court sentenced President Hassan Rouhani's brother, Hossein Fereydoun, to five years in prison, judiciary spokesman Gholamhossein Esmaili said.
The judiciary spokesman said Freydoun was jailed for five years but he may face further charges in another case, without giving details, Fars reported.
In May, Hossein Fereydoun was sentenced to an unspecified jail term in a corruption case that the president’s supporters allege was politically motivated.
