3. Biodata: The appellate court of Anti-Corruption Justice Center (ACJC) in December 2017 awarded eight years and six months jail sentence to Public Order Police Commander Gen Zamarai Paykan over complicity in murder and misuse of authority. Eight others involved in the case were awarded from one and a half years to eight years of imprisonment. Ten months have passed since the appellate court verdict, but the Attorney General Office (AGO) says it did not process the case and Zamarai Paykan is not detained yet. However, Paykan was instead granted 20 bodyguards for his protection. About the ACJC initial court verdict, he said: “I will go to the court when biased judges go away and the judiciary system is cleansed of politics.”(20180906)
