MELLATEMA
in a news report says 25 lawmakers have signed a motion to impeach Interior Minister Mostafa Mohammad-Najjar. The report quotes MP Mohammad Javad Abtahi as saying Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani plans to meet lawmakers in an effort to convince them to give up the impeachment motion against the minister. Abtahi stated that impeaching interior minister is not in the best interests of the country at this juncture, and the issue can be resolved through dialogue. MP Jafar Qaderi also explained the reasons behind the lawmakers’ decision to impeach Mohammad-Najjar. According to Qaderi, authorizing irresponsible officials to appoint governors general, poor performance of governors general, lack of coordination between governorates and security institutions are among the reasons that lawmakers have cited to impeach the interior minister.

TEHRAN-E EMROOZ in a news report quotes Asadollah Badamchian, the deputy director of the Islamic Coalition Party, as saying that the plot to create sedition in the upcoming parliamentary and next presidential elections is much more complex than the previous seditions, and the Islamic Coalition Party should remain vigilant. The enemy, which could not bring seditionists to power in the country (in 2009), is using a different method to win seats in the next parliament, and thus “we should be aware of enemy’s intrigues,” he added
