Shargh Network reported the arrest of Suraya Rezaei Mahvar, the business development manager of Myket. Saberine News published scenes of the arrest of the Myket manager. Ms. Rezaei had criticized the Islamic Republic's Law Enforcement Force and Ahmadreza Radan in her social media posts. According to this report, Suraya Rezaei was arrested on Tuesday at her workplace. There is no information available about the detaining agency and the reason for her arrest. Myket is a subsidiary of Hossein Holding. Taqcheh, another company under Hossein Holding, was taken offline last week after images of its employees in social media were shared, and it was later unblocked with a judicial commitment. On Monday, August 9, users of the 'Taqcheh' app for 'books and reading' were unable to access it. Following this incident, the 'Taqcheh online bookstore and audiobook and e-book download platform' sent a notification to its users stating that it had been filtered 'without prior notice' and emphasized that all users' books and library subscriptions were preserved. The Ministry of Culture cited the lack of a license as the reason for filtering this platform, but informed sources rejected this claim, stating that not only was Taqcheh's license visible on the Ministry's website, but its numerous collaborations with state media, the Ministry of Culture (International Book Fair), Tehran Municipality, and several other institutions indicate the inaccuracy of the Ministry's claim. This filtering and shutdown, which occurred under the pretext of publishing a photo of 'Taqcheh' employees in social media with optional hijab, faced significant reactions in social media. 'Digikala' was unblocked after apologizing and emphasizing its 'commitment to the laws of the Islamic Republic.' The blockage and unblocking of startups under the pretext of 'improper hijab' has left officials unaware. The government's response to information dissemination regarding migration statistics has been budget cuts and building evacuations. The 'Taqcheh' reading platform was filtered; experts warned about the despair and flight of youth. Mandatory hijab | The Ministry of Culture: 'Taqcheh' does not have a license to operate; users: it has become inaccessible! Mandatory hijab; the judiciary has filed a case against 'Taqcheh' employees.
