‘Cooperation With Iran International a Crime’
TEHRAN -- Iran’s minister of culture and Islamic guidance on Wednesday warned that there would be strict punishment for any cooperation with ‘Iran International’, a UK-based terrorist organization masquerading as a media network. Muhammad-Mahdi Esmaeili said the punishment for collaboration with the UK-based network will be in accordance with the country’s law. His remarks came a day after the intelligence ministry designated the UK-based, Saudi-funded Persian-language network as a “terrorist organization” responsible for instigating deadly riots in Iran.
