The defector went on to state that the Iranians employed a number of people that were ‘fake reporters’.
He told the station that a number of people attending the talks on Iran’s side are reported to be journalists, but that “their main job is to make sure that all the news fed back to Iran goes through their channels.”“My conscience would not allow me to carry out my profession in this manner anymore,” he said.
Motaghi had held a major press position for Rouhani. During his campaign, Motaghi headed up Rouhani’s successful social media efforts to bring his message to young voters through Twitter.
The Iran Student Correspondents Association (ISCA) confirmed that Motaghi had been in Lausanne to cover the talks, but had quit. Motaghi’s critics clamed he had gone to Lausanne only for the purpose of defecting.
He is said to be a friend of jailed Iranian-American journalist Jason Rezaian and had been lobbying internally for his release. The Telegraph said one news website reported that he had been tipped off that he would have been arrested if he had returned to Iran.
