KHABAR ONLINE
in a news report quotes Fazel Mousavi, chairman of the Majlis Article 90 Committee, as saying Majlis gave the first yellow card to the president for not appointing a caretaker oil minister. He said MPs’ likely vote to 50 law violations by the president which has been mentioned in the Article 90 would be the second yellow card to the president. Therefore, he said, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is only one yellow card away from facing impeachment. Mousavi added if Majlis recognizes the president or ministers have flouted law it will be a yellow card for them and if it is confirmed that any of them have committed three violations that person will be put on the path for impeachment.

JAVAN in a report entitled “Why Police Have Secured City for Muscled Arms” says thugs are disturbing the peace and calm of citizens and police are not dealing with them seriously. The report refers to an event that happened on Tuesday, in which the thugs had a plan to abduct a girl but were confronted by a passerby who was a cleric. The hooligans attacked the cleric and his right eyelid was torn, and his cornea was badly damaged
