Nationwide uprising in Iran – Statement 19

NCRI – The Iranian regime today banned the news coverage of opponents' demonstration and protesters by foreign journalists.

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi described this act as a preface to increased suppression of people's uprising and said while the scenes of firing on demonstrators and killing them and assaulting the youths whose only demand is freedom has caused international outrage, the mullahs' regime tries to increase this brutal suppression away from the eyes of foreign journalists and cameras.

The Iranian Resistance's President-elect said these criminal and suppressive measures can never save the bloodthirsty regime of Iran from the anger and outrage of the whole population – a fact that was witnessed in recent days' uprising.

Meanwhile, Dorri Najaf Abadi, the regime's prosecutor general today warned the demonstrators and said "Any unlawful action against public order will be dealt with." "Any disorder, riot, disturbance, measures against public safety, national or public interests must be dealt with."
