In January 2022, Hosseini was appointed as governor of the city of Amol, Mazandaran Province.

Further, security forces in Amol have continued to harass peaceful protesters and families of the deceased.

In June 2023, Hosseini was replaced as Governor of Amol, but was appointed Special Governor of the city of Amol. In his new position, Hosseini still has an active role as government representative.
