Iran: cause and effect



According to Tabriz MP Mohammad Reza Mir-Tajeddini, who is also the deputy chairman of Majlis Cultural Commission banning of newssites on the internet should be clear.
He said in an interview with Mehr News that banning of websites and newspapers should follow the same rules.
Last week the newssite Baztab was banned for the second time this (Iranian calendar) year.

The second time in one week a helicopter crashed in Maharlou Lake, a saltlake south of Shiraz, Fars province.
Thursday, a helicopter from the Ministry of Oil crashed in the lake, leaving three persons dead. Saturday a helicopter which was on its way to recover the wreckage of the chopper from the previous incident crashed. The two people on board got killed.
Officials blamed technical faults for that crash, although investigations are still ongoing.


Employers of illegal foreign workers will have to pay heavy cash fines as of next Iranian calendar year (starts March) if they continue to recruit the laborers.
The punishment is a cash fine of 300,000 rials per each day of the foreign worker's work, which would double on the second day of his/her work.
The employer would be sentenced to 91 to 180 days in prison in case of continuing to recruit the illegal foreigners.
