Qom, Iran
Hossein Kazemeyni Boroujerdi (Persian: حسین کاظمینی بروجردی, also Hosein Kazemaini Boroujerdi, born August 1, 1958) is a former Twelver Shi'i Muslim Ayatollah and cleric who advocates the separation of religion and government and has been arrested and jailed several times by the Iranian government for his criticisms directed against the Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei.
After eleven years as a political and religious prisoner, Boroujerdi defrocked, abandoning his status as an Ayatollah, and became an secularism activist.[1][2] The Iranian state allegedly tried to have him killed after accusing him of apostasy.[3][4]
