|
Saturday, 28 April 2007 |
|

Mohammad-Baqer Zolqadr who is also Deputy Interior Minister for Security Affairs to Moscow, the Kremlin officials tried to play down the trip. Zolqadr is one of 15 Iranians listed for involvement in nuclear or ballistic missile activities in the March 24 UN Security Council Resolution 1747.

Undergraduates who have criticised the government are given one to three penalty points, according to the possible threat they are said to pose. About 150 students are currently starred. Those who have been registered for masters courses have been forced to do so under preset conditions. The conditions allow university officials to expel the students at any time.
