Iran: campaign

Friday, Iran’s deputy judiciary chief told that Iran would execute at least 10 “trouble-makers” in the coming days to combat “insecurity” in society.
He said that the sentences of these individuals had already been upheld by the State Supreme Court.
He announced, that in order to root out insecurity once and for all, there must be an unrelenting campaign to combat this problem.
IRNA reported that his remarks were made at Friday prayers in Tehran.



Reports say Iran's Supreme National Security Council has warned journalists not to report on the problems caused by gas rationing that led to heavy protests.
Iranian and Western media report that the official warning came a day after the government announced the introduction of gas rationing.
In recent months, Iran's top security body has also put journalists under pressure not to criticize the country's nuclear policies.
Despite the warning reformist newspapers criticized the government's surprise move and said it disrupted people's life and created confusion.
Also various Iranian bloggers criticed the rationing in their blogs and/or showed pictures.


Research by the University of Shiraz shows that the poisoneous smoke, caused by setting fire to wastages in agricultural lands in vicinity of Persepolis in Iranian Fars province, will change into carbonic acid during night time, which damages the stones of this world heritage site.
During recent years farmers set fire to the remnants of last year’s agricultural products instead of plowing them out during the months of May and June.
Despite all promises been made so far by authorities of governor office of Fars province as well as governorship of Marvdasht region for stopping this harmful measure, this year the fires still continued.
