On Monday, the state-run Fars news agency quoted an Iranian regime security official as saying that a law passed by the regime’s Majlis (parliament) “about preventing the illegal use of satellite dishes is still in force” and the paramilitary Bassij “has the legal authority” to confiscate the equipment.
The official, Colonel Morteza Taraghi, added, “Removing satellite dishes is not limited to a particular time period … and the police will confiscate them.”
“The police will deal with visible offenses, such that in places where dishes can be seen, they will be removed.”
Having failed to suppress widespread anti-regime protests, the ruling clerics are moving to suppress people in their own homes under the pretext of collecting satellite dishes.
