Rostam Ghasemi, the former Minister of Roads and Urban Development and also the previous oil minister, passed away on Thursday after a long struggle with illness, APA reports citing Mehrnews.

Rostam Ghasemi, the former Minister of Roads and Urban Development and one of the veterans of the Holy Defense against the Western-backed Saddam regime, died after a long struggle with illness.

Last year and a few months after the late Ghasemi was elected to the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development, signs of illness appeared in him, but he continued his duties with all his might while starting treatment.
