The state-run Fars news agency wrote that the Majlis deputies who issued the written warning were from Abadan, Ahvaz, Khorramshahr, Tehran and Oroumieh.
The gasoline refinery at Abadan was not yet ready, but Ahmadinejad insisted on bringing it into operation. As a result of the premature opening, an explosion took place that led to a number of deaths and injuries among the workers.
