Activity of the 'Change Committee' in Pasteur

The newspaper Arman, in the headline of its May 9 issue, emphasizes that 'the project of changes in the government has begun,' stating that 'some ministers and governors will be changed.' The newspaper Kayhan reports, quoting Jawad Karimi Qodosi, about a 'three-urgent plan' to 'suspend negotiations until the end of threats.' However, at the same time, the newspaper Shargh, quoting Mehdi Davatgari, another member of parliament, writes: 'If the parliament wants to approve a three-urgent plan regarding the suspension of negotiations, this approach contradicts the leadership's policies that have authorized negotiations.' Shargh also quotes Mehdi Davatgari emphasizing that the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic 'determines the framework of the announced policies and that if the parliament wants to approve a three-urgent plan regarding the suspension of negotiations, this approach contradicts the leadership's policies that have authorized negotiations.' The newspapers Iran and Farhikhtegan have focused on the reactions of judicial and security officials to the 'suspicious death of Farinaz Khosravani' and the protests of citizens in Mahabad. The newspaper Iran reports, quoting judicial and security officials, that 'the suspicious death of Farinaz Khosravani' in the Tara Hotel in Mahabad 'was not a suicide but an incident.' This newspaper recalls that 'in the early moments of the incident, several local media and social networks claimed that she threw herself from the hotel balcony to prevent an assault by an individual linked to intelligence and security agencies.' The newspaper Farhikhtegan, while publishing a report about the protests in Mahabad over the 'ambiguous death of Farinaz Khosravani,' quotes Saeed Montazeralmahdi, the social deputy of the police, stating: 'The main suspect in the Mahabad incident has made confessions,' but 'there is no trace of security and intelligence suspects in the Mahabad incident file, and the suspect was arrested in the early hours.' The newspaper Etemad, in a report titled 'Duel between the government and critics in the Ministry of Science,' points out that now 'the new misconduct file of the Ministry of Science is on the judiciary's desk' and 'the investigation and inquiry plan regarding scholarships is on the desk of the Islamic Consultative Assembly,' stating: 'Even if nine months have passed since the dismissal of Reza Faraji Dana, the Ministry of Science is still at the forefront of the news.' The newspaper Hemayat, affiliated with the judiciary's prison organization, harshly attacks Ahmed Shaheed, the UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights in Iran, in its front page. This newspaper, referring to the joint statement by Ahmed Shaheed and 'Christoph Heinz, the UN Special Rapporteur,' regarding executions in Iran, writes that they in this joint statement 'repeated the claim that the number of executions in Iran is high and asked the Iranian government to prevent the continuation of this punishment.' The newspaper Hemayat also accused the UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights in Iran of 'supporting traffickers and murderers' and wrote that 'as the nuclear issue between Iran and the 1+5 group escalates, the issue of human rights and unfounded accusations against the Islamic Republic and the judiciary has once again become a priority for so-called human rights organizations.' The activity of the 'Change Committee' in Pasteur; some ministers and governors will be changed. The newspaper Arman emphasizes that 'the project of changes in the government has begun,' stating: 'Some ministers and governors will be changed.' This newspaper has reported on 'the activity of the Change Committee in Pasteur' to evaluate the performance of ministers and governors and quoted Hesamoddin Ashna, an advisor to Hassan Rouhani, stating: 'Changes in the government will happen both at the ministerial and governor levels.' The newspaper Arman, referring to the publication of news about 'the formation of a committee to review the performance of government officials in all areas, especially governors and mayors,' writes: 'A specific time has been set for reviewing government officials,' and based on this, Hesamoddin Ashna, one of the advisors to the President, has announced 'the beginning of changes in the government' and said: 'Some governors do not have the necessary ability to manage the province. Our reports and reviews indicate that after the appointment of the Minister of Intelligence, a good calm has prevailed in the internal atmosphere, and in the Ministry of Interior, the President, by selecting a minister whom he trusted and considered cross-factional, tried to send the message to society that we will face a period of calm.' Hesamoddin Ashna stated that 'the selection of governors is also practically done with the approval of the cabinet. It is not only the Minister of Interior and the President who decide on this,' but 'the provincial trips for the President's team clarified that contrary to initial assumptions, some governors do not have the necessary ability to manage the province; therefore, changes will happen in the government both at the ministerial and governor levels.' The newspaper Arman notes that 'it seems that the reason for the initiation of the project of changes in the government at this stage is related to the beginning of electoral activities,' stating: 'With the appointment of the central governor, there is currently no deficiency in the number of governors,' but 'the performance of the governors of the eleventh government from the time of their appointment until now has faced criticisms, meaning that they have not been able to align themselves with the programs of the government of prudence and hope and move in that direction.' This newspaper recalls that Hassan Rouhani previously stated in the first gathering of the governors of the eleventh government: 'The presence of the governor in the province should be such that everyone feels they have won. No one should feel they have lost, no faction, no major party, no large group. How? If we can take the commonalities that are agreed upon by all as the main criterion for work. We are seeking the development of provinces; we must solve the main problems of the provinces.' The newspaper Arman writes: 'It seems that the deadline for ultimatum has ended, and the government has decided to make changes in line with its promises regarding the selection of managers along with its promises, and it does not seem that these changes will be limited to the Ministry of Interior and governors and mayors.' The plans of the hardliners in parliament for restrictions on negotiations; from 'three-urgent' to 'bridesmaid.' The newspaper Kayhan reports, quoting Jawad Karimi Qodosi, about a 'three-urgent plan' to 'suspend negotiations until the end of threats,' but at the same time, the newspaper Shargh quotes Mehdi Davatgari, another member of parliament, stating: 'If the parliament wants to approve a three-urgent plan regarding the suspension of negotiations, this approach contradicts the leadership's policies that have authorized negotiations.' Kayhan, in its front page, quotes Jawad Karimi Qodosi, a member of the Foreign Policy and National Security Commission, stating: 'The parliament has a three-urgent plan on its agenda, which states that negotiations will be suspended until the United States ceases its threats against Iran.' This representative, close to the Steadfast Front, emphasized that the West, especially the United States, wants Iran's military centers to be opened for extensive inspections, to which Iran's response will be the same hot lead.' He said: 'Representatives have prepared a three-urgent plan that will be reviewed and approved next week, and based on this plan, nuclear negotiations will be suspended until the end of the threatening rhetoric from the American side, and the end of this rhetoric must be officially announced in a statement.' This newspaper, published under the supervision of the representative of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic, quotes Jawad Karimi Qodosi stating that the recent remarks of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic 'that negotiations under the shadow of threats are unacceptable is a governmental decree.' However, the newspaper Shargh highlights the reactions of some representatives to the possibility of presenting a three-urgent plan, stating: 'According to the internal regulations of the parliament, the approval of a three-urgent plan or bill is possible for emergency situations and requires the approval of two-thirds of the representatives, and if a plan or bill with two or three urgencies is placed on the agenda of the parliament, the members of the Guardian Council must attend that session. A condition that is very unlikely to be prepared even in this ninth parliament at present.' This newspaper writes: 'Ninth parliament representatives will enter the hall on Monday after a ten-day holiday, while two different fronts have formed among them since Saturday,' and 'the opponents of nuclear negotiations, after the approval of oversight over the implementation of the agreement in the United States Senate, have raised the issue of approving a similar plan in the Iranian parliament and ultimately, to not fall behind the American hardliners, announced that they want to bring the three-urgent plan for the suspension of nuclear negotiations to the floor.' Shargh quotes Jawad Karimi Qodosi, one of the designers of this three-urgent plan, stating: 'This plan has a single article, and according to this plan, the government is obliged to suspend negotiations until the Americans apologize to the Islamic Republic of Iran in a statement and end their threats.' This newspaper also reports that Mehdi Davatgari, another principlist representative and member of the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission of the parliament, reacted to Jawad Karimi Qodosi's remarks about the 'three-urgent plan for the suspension of negotiations,' stating that the general policies of the system are outlined and communicated by the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic and 'the conduct or suspension of negotiations is also part of the general policies of the system that only the Supreme Leader can authorize; just as declaring war or peace is with the leadership, and the parliament cannot pass a law for declaring war or peace.' Mehdi Davatgari emphasized that the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic 'determines the framework of the announced policies, and that if the parliament wants to approve a three-urgent plan regarding the suspension of negotiations, this approach contradicts the leadership's policies that have authorized negotiations.' According to the newspaper Shargh, Mehdi Davatgari stated: 'It is natural that whenever the Supreme Leader raises the issue of suspending negotiations, negotiations will be suspended; therefore, the parliament's entry or approval of a three-urgent plan is contrary to the first paragraph of Article 110 of the Constitution and will certainly face objections from the Guardian Council.' Shargh also reported that simultaneously 'news of attempts by opponents of negotiations to add a member of parliament to the negotiating team' was published on Saturday, but at the same time, quoting Gholamali Jafarzadeh Iman Abadi, a principlist representative of the ninth parliament, regarding 'various plans to limit the nuclear negotiating team in nuclear negotiations,' stated: 'There should be consensus among representatives for the plans presented in parliament, but there is no such consensus regarding these three plans. According to the plan presented for signatures to representatives, some believe that Zarif should be made a bridesmaid, while the Foreign Minister does not need a bridesmaid.' Gholamali Jafarzadeh also stated regarding 'the continuation or suspension of negotiations': 'This country has a leadership, and I think this issue should be with their permission and is part of their authority, so the parliament has no right to intervene in it. For these reasons, gentlemen representatives should allow the negotiating team to do their work, and the parliament should supervise within the limits of the law; at the same time, the Supreme Leader also has the ultimate oversight. The members of the Supreme National Security Council have permission from the Supreme Leader, and the excessive interference of some representatives in their work may contradict national interests and interfere with the limits of the leadership's authority.' The reactions of official authorities to the Mahabad incident. The newspaper Iran also reports, quoting judicial and security officials, that 'the suspicious death of Farinaz Khosravani' in the Tara Hotel in Mahabad 'was not a suicide but an incident.' This newspaper writes: 'Six days after the suspicious death of a girl in one of the hotels in Mahabad, Tavakkol Heydari, the head of the judiciary in West Azerbaijan, provided new details about this incident and emphasized the need for an independent and swift investigation into this case.' According to this newspaper, the head of the judiciary in West Azerbaijan also rejected the suspect's affiliation with the security and intelligence agencies of the Islamic Republic, stating: 'The suspect is an engineer and a specialist in interior building design, and his activity has been in the field of improving hotel standards. He was present in the Tara Hotel in Mahabad for this purpose, and our investigations reject any affiliation of him with government agencies; let alone that he is an inspector or security officer.' The newspaper Iran quotes Tavakkol Heydari, the head of the judiciary in West Azerbaijan, stating: 'Forensic examinations reject any rumors regarding the assault on the deceased and show that there was no relationship of this extent between the deceased and the suspect,' and 'the examination of 25 text messages exchanged between the suspect and the deceased shows that the suspect invited the deceased to his room.' This newspaper quotes the head of the judiciary in West Azerbaijan stating: 'The suspect stated that a few minutes after the deceased's arrival in the room and their conversation, the hotel manager, noticing the absence of the deceased, informed the deceased's mother of the situation by phone, and the deceased's mother also called her daughter to inform her that the hotel manager was looking for her. After this call, the deceased contacted one of her colleagues to inform them of the situation. Heydari added: 'According to the suspect's statements, the deceased's colleague, after checking, informed him that the hotel manager was busy monitoring the surveillance cameras. The deceased panicked and decided to leave the room, and she did so through the balconies. She crossed several adjacent balconies, each about 80 centimeters apart, and then decided to jump from the balcony to the lower floor, but after hanging from the balcony, she failed to do so and fell down.' The newspaper Iran simultaneously quotes Jafar Katani, the governor of Mahabad, stating: 'The suspect, referred to by the initials 'S.M.H,' is an employee of a company in Tehran and was consulting managers of hotels regarding performance evaluation and standard enhancement and had collaborated with several hotels in the Mahabad district.' This newspaper quotes the governor of Mahabad emphasizing that 'the suspect has no affiliation with any of the country's security and law enforcement agencies.' The newspaper Iran quotes Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejei, the spokesperson for the judiciary, stating...
