Many statements were issued condemning the immoral policy of the Iranian authorities against the freedom of opinion and expression and indifference to the feelings of millions of people, considering that the Iranian intelligence officials made a flagrant violation against the religious authority, which has a long and honourable history in the defence of the poor and oppressed.
