Iran to try Bahais for spying for Israel
TEHRAN (AFP) – Iran will soon try seven members of the banned Bahai religion on charges including "espionage for Israel," the ISNA news agency reported on Wednesday.

"The charges against seven defendants in the case of the illegal Bahai group were examined ... and the case will be sent to the revolutionary court next week," deputy Tehran prosecutor Hassan Haddad was quoted as saying.

Haddad said the charges included "espionage for Israel, insulting religious sanctities and propaganda against the Islamic republic."

1. Muslim persecution of the Bahai fair is more vicious in many ways than the way they treat Jews
You rarely hear about it in the MSM.
