Said Saffar Harandi, Minster of Culture and Islamic Guidance. This ministry is responsible for checking everybody before publication, giving license to every movie and many many other filterings. This sentence's audience is a group of journalists who traveled to Netherlands some weeks ago. When they returned back to Iran, The airport's police inquired them and too their papers, photos and films on custody.

A few days later, the rightists/conservatives newspapers published "A group of journalists who visited whorehouses in Amsterdam are inquired" !

It seems that government is afraid of the contact and relation between these journalists and reformist/democratic organizations outside Iran and specially in Netherlands.

The minister of Islamic Guidance added "Contacting organizations which's job is influencing other countries is not a professional journalists task". Answering to a journalist who said "I wrote a letter to Information Ministry and asked them if going to this travel is OK or not and they answered there is no problem to go", Harandi said "It is better for you to confess to people where were you, what you did, whom you visited; if you tell these things Ministry of Information will not ask you anymore".

I think he is going to force these reformist journalists to confess about the spy activities and deface reformist activities inside Iran. A part of problem is photo's and movies these people might have from red light district, those material could cause major problems in Iran (haha... we were lucky ! we entered Iran with many of those materials :D and had many shows for our friends ;) )


p.s. I have to learn more English words and expressions specially in these fields ! :)
