Iran Press News: Translation by Banafsheh Zand-Bonazzi
The Director of the Islamic regime’s Squadron For Combat With Internet Crimes shut down 9 Internet cafes in the Tehran suburb of Karadj, calling them “unjustifiable and unallowable”. The squadron director also said: These places are required to start operating a month after they receive their permits; if they do not comply with rule, their contracts are annulled and their belongings are confiscated. The use of prohibited support tools for the amplification of satellite waves powered at the Internet centers is a crime that we are also involved in investigating; these centers must be monitored legally and systematized by governmental communications offices.” He also confirmed that the squadron is comprised of individuals from the public prosecutors office of the public and revolutionary court, the intelligence agency of western Tehran, the military and resistance detail of the Basij and revolutionary guards of the township of Karadj.
