Saeed Mortazavi

Hard-line Iranian prosecutor fired

Los Angeles Times: Reporting from Beirut - Iran's new judiciary chief ousted the hard-line prosecutor behind the ongoing trials against opposition figures in Tehran, replacing him with a relatively moderate newcomer from the provinces, an Iranian news agency reported today. For years, Tehran prosecutor-general Saeed Mortazavi, a staunch ally of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has been the bane of reformists, journalists and activists. His firing suggests an attempt by the new judiciary chief, Ayatollah Sadegh Larijani, the scion of a powerful conservative family, to curtail the influence of hard-liners and clean up the image of the country's legal system. Mortazavi was replaced by Abbas Jaafari Dowlatabadi, the former head of justice in Iran's southwest Khuzestan Justice Department, the semiofficial Iranian Students News Agency reported >>>

Mortazavi is sick criminal

by aynak on

 

He needs to be sent to an institution.   Instead he is made head prosecuter?   This grants this murderer even more power!

Of the many ciminal agents of Islamic Regime, he ranks among the top 5, along with Shariat-Madari, Rohoulah Hosainian, Taeb and Jafari.

Cosmetic BS which does not fool anyone!!!

by mehdi2009 on

This regime is at a cross roads and they know it very well. and  as I have said to anyone who listens: "the people in Iran have suffered way too much to buy any of this Dog and Pony Show".

As I have stated time and again, this generaion of young men and women in Iran unbelievably brilliant, and have tremendous Political and Social awareness, and this kind of monkey business only makes them more determined to get rid of this Evil and Inhumane Regime.

The henchman whom they fired from his job is one the most despised and disgusting individuals in Iran, however, in the Grand Scheme of things this actin will not make any significant diffrence.  They have just replace one Horrible Instrument of Repression with another, and these acts will not fool anybody.

This action only shows just how desperate this Regime has become, and as I have stated numerous times previously the cracks are becoming Gigantic and the Day of Reckoning is fast approaching.

Usually when depots become desperate, their mistakes tend to Magnify themselves, and then when they run out of time their whole house of cards will start crashing down on them.

The act of replacing this moster only shows that the leeches have finally turned on themselves, and starting to suck each others blood instead of the innocent people of Iran.

Salutation to all True sons and duaghtrs of Iran.

Hmmmm

by ex programmer craig on

On what basis is Larijani considered a "reformer"? That seems fishy to me! And while I approve of firing murderers from the position of chief prosecuter, I've never seen any evidence that the islamic Republic disapproves of murdering dissidents or anyone else who becomes inconvenient for them. So, I am not prepared to accept teh idea that replacing one regime thug with another is evidence of anything more than an internal boys-club pissing contest.

k1s1000 We do not have the same Understanding of Regime Change

by Darius Kadivar on

What makes you say that Regime Change is about Invading My country by Foreign Troops ?

A Regime Change to my knowledge was obtained in Iran back in 1979 by a Revolution.

You Guys However triggered the 1979 Revolution with the Help of the Foreign "ARAB" Palestinians and did so without the slightest shame.

DK:

FYI, Iraq had a regime change. Now look at it after 6 years. Over 2 million Iraqis have died and many more are refugees. Still many more are maimed and will die because  of cancer due to the unranium bombs used there. People are still jailed, killed, papers are being closed, freedom is curtailed (more than saddam's time according to Iraqis, tc.) We had the same and even worse at the Shahansha Araygoooz era. What in this picture of regime change makes you happy?

Fired?

by ghalam-doon on

Think not. He was kicked upstairs. The regime does not want to show any signs of weakness or internal turmoil.

Not for now anyway.

"Aanhaa hameh baa ham hastan."

When they put Mortazavi likes in jail, then we can start rejoicing; since that would be the beginning of the end.

From prosecutor to defendant!

For some reason, this guy reminds me of Alicia Keys' song, "Karma". The lyrics of the song has a line called, "What goes around comes around, What goes up must come down!"
//www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_SmJpAmirw

I truly hope this guy will experience what Iranian detainees in Evin have experienced: solitary confinement, humiliation, appearing on prime time IRI's (Op)Press(ed) TV with slippers and Pajamas (the bright paprika color), forced confession, etc.....Lets see if his homey, AN, will bail him out!

thanks for the article!

Extradite him to Canada!

by Quebeqi on

We have a pretty nice maximum security federal prison in the deep  dark forests of the North Shore of Quebec waiting for him. If the black bears, the "Maringouins" (mosquitos) or the freezing cold do not get him, it will be our worst local criminals such as the Hell Angels. According to their own code of honor, they don't like murderous rapists like Mortazavi.


American Dream

Fired??? No just given another job...

by American Dream on

These guys don't get fired, they just get placed in another position in the Iranian government.

It's just one big charade.  

Charlatans, that's all they are.

Iran's judiciary under

by Fatollah on

Iran's judiciary under Islamic Republic can at best be compared to a sewer! It's such a corrupt and rotten to the core institution beyond belief! Do you remember how Shahroudi's letters 'bakhshnameh-ha' to the provincial judges were pissed on? What makes you think this new guy "mullah Larijani" is any better or more righteous than Shahroudi? I've heard that it's not the judges rather emam jomehs with their lackeys running the judiciary in the provinces ... when it comes to this dude replacing the other bastard Mortazavi, nothing will ever change, it is only for show, merely a facelift ... fuck em!

Khamenei cutting deals with Rafsanjani

by Darius Kadivar on

It seems obvious that this is the result of a concession between the two SOB's who want to try and find culprits for their own incompetence.

Notice the difference between :

Khamenei's speach

//iranian.com/main/2009/aug/khamenei-no-foreign-influence

And that of Ahmadinejad:

//iranian.com/main/news/2009/08/28/ahmadinejad-calls-action-iran-oppostion

GOOLEH EEN HA ROH NAKHOREED !

I WAS, AM AND WILL BE FOR REGIME CHANGE !

DOWN WITH THE IRI !

Vindication?

by liberation08 on

it's too early to judge sadeq larijani, but i was ridiculed by iranian.com posters (vildemose and fozolie) for commenting that s. larijani might be an ahmadinejad rival
