Iranian intelligence seals office of late ayatollah Montazeri
By: Anjum Kermani
PARIS, France: Late Iranian ayatollah Hossein-Ali Montazeri’s
office in the city of Qom was closed down and sealed off Monday by
intelligence services, opposition websites reported.
According to the reports, the office was attacked Sunday by
pro-government hardliners and the intelligence service therefore
decided Monday to shut it down.
Montazeri, who died last year aged 87, was a fierce critic of
President Mahmud Ahmadinejad and accused his government of
dictatorship after his disputed re-election last June.
No one was injured in the attack against the office but the hardliners
damage office equipment, destroyed documents and tore up the
ayatollah's pictures.
His office was attacked after Mehdi Karroubi, the head of the
opposition Etemad Melli party, visited the area.
Karroubi's car was reportedly also attacked by the hardliners but the
moderate cleric was not injured.

get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
