Iran news publications suspended over bail reports
The Reformist newspaper Ghanoon and conservative news site Dana have both been suspended by the Tehran judiciary, likely for reporting on the enormous bail set for a government official.
A Reformist newspaper and a conservative website in Iran have been suspended on the orders of the Tehran judiciary.
The newspaper Ghanoon, which means “law” in Persian, was notified by the judiciary yesterday, May 7, that the reason given for the suspension was that the organization had been “publishing lies in order to disturb public opinion and an article against Islamic norms.” Tehran public prosecutor Abbas Jaffar Dowlatabi announced today that the news website Dana has also been suspended.
