<<Iranian Football Federation Thwarts Bid to Allow Women in Stadium
Iran's Premier League football club Malavan Bandar Anzali FC says the
national football federation has rejected its request to host female
fans in its stadium for a match against Tractor FC on April 15. The club
of Bandar Anzali, in northern Iran, apologized to its female fans on
April 14 for their continued exclusion from Sirous Ghayeghran stadium.
For more than four decades, Iran-s clerical establishment has opposed
the idea of women being allowed in stadiums with male fans. But the
president of the football federation, Medi Taj, has claimed in an
interview that women would be allowed to attend matches starting this
week. After the announcement, Malavan Bandar Anzali FC asked the
authorities' permission to host female fans in its stadium for the match
against Tractor FC. The club said it had received permission from the
Provincial Security Council. In 2019, a football fan named Sahar
Khodayari died after setting herself on fire over fears that she would
be jailed for trying to attend a match while wearing a disguise.>>

Sunni Cleric's Office: Fridays in Baluchistan are <Bloodier> than in
Jerusalem
The office of a prominent Iranian Sunni cleric who has been missing for
four months accused the Islamic Republic of hypocrisy, saying that it is
organizing rallies in support of the Palestinians while cracking down on
its own people. A statement published by Molavi Abdulghaffar
Naqshbandi's office called the state-sanctioned annual rallies marking
Quds (Jerusalem) Day on April 14 a <spectacle.> Abdulghaffar Naqshbandi
is the Friday prayer leader of the city of Rask in the south-eastern
province of Sistan and Baluchistan, which is home to Iran's Sunni Baluch
minority of up to 2 million people. His whereabouts have remained
unknown since he traveled to the north-eastern city of Mashhad on
December 12 after he was issued a summons to attend a hearing at a
special clerical court. Abdulghaffar Naqshbandi had confirmed the
September 27 rape of a 15-year-old Baluch girl by a police commander in
the province. Three days after the rape, security forces killed nearly
100 people who were protesting outside a police station in the
provincial capital, Zahedan, after Friday prayers. Four security forces
also lost their lives. Abdulghaffar Naqshbandi's office published its
latest statement on the day tens of thousands of Iranians marched in
cities across Iran to mark Quds Day. <Fridays in Baluchistan are
bloodier than in Jerusalem,> the statement reads. <Your deception and
hypocritical slogans have faded. Our people have recognized the real
Jerusalem and Israel,> it added. <Come to Zahedan on Fridays and see
with your own eyes the coffins of Jerusalem people in front of the
sticks of the Israeli hands,> it said, referring to the victims of
Iranian security forces and Iran's armed forces. According to sources in
Sistan and Baluchistan, the Friday prayer leader of Rask might have been
arrested by the intelligence agency of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard
Corps (IRGC). Since his disappearance, residents of Rask and other towns
across the province have been holding demonstrations every Friday
calling for his release, among other demands.>>

Iran's Top Sunni Cleric Blasts Country's <Closed-Minded> Leadership
Iran's most prominent Sunni cleric again used his Friday sermon to
preach religious tolerance and to criticize the policies of the
country's Shia leadership, amid popular calls for the overthrow of the
Islamic Republic. The ideologies of those <closed-minded individuals who
hold positions of power> have <hindered progress and led to irrational
decisions,> Molavi Abdulhamid, the Sunni Friday prayer leader of the
south-eastern city of Zahedan, said on April 14. The 76-year-old cleric
said that Iranians should be allowed to choose their rulers, emphasizing
that no one is appointed by God other than Prophet Mohammad himself.
<All officials, regardless of their position, should be appointed by the
people rather than God,> he said, in an apparent taunt to Supreme Leader
Ali Khamenei. He emphasized the people's demand for freedom and justice
and warned that those who execute anti-government protesters will be
<punished on Judgment Day.> <No one should think of destroying others,>
he said, adding that Islam <is the religion of tolerance, interaction
and peace.> Molavi has been a key dissenting voice inside Iran since the
eruption of nationwide protests in September 2022 demanding fundamental
economic, social and political changes. Zahedan is the capital of Sistan
and Baluchistan, home to Iran's Sunni Baluch minority of up to 2 million
people. In his latest Friday sermon, Molavi blamed the Islamic Republic
for a wave of poisonings that has affected girls' schools over the past
months, saying, <People do not accept your claim and believe that the
poisonings are deeply rooted in the system.> <The culprit must be
connected to an organization capable of attacking multiple schools in a
single day. Regardless of whether the perpetrators is from within or
outside the government, he must be identified and stopped by force,> he
said. Molavi expressed <surprise> over the fact that those behind the
poisonings have not been identified, since the country's security
apparatuses are using sophisticated surveillance systems to identify
violators of the Islamic Republic's mandatory headscarf rules. He also
criticized the government's discriminatory policies toward Afghan
immigrants, including the closure of prayer halls for Afghans in some
cities. After prayers, hundreds of demonstrators took to the streets of
Zahedan for a silent march out of respect for the month of Ramadan.
Internet monitor NetBlocks reported a <significant disruption> to
connectivity in the city, calling the incident <the latest in a cycle of
internet shutdowns targeting anti-government protests during Friday
prayers.> Zahedan residents have been holding protest rallies every
Friday since September 30, when security forces killed nearly 100
people, in the deadliest incident so far in the nationwide
demonstrations triggered by the September death of a 22-year-old Kurdish
woman, Mahsa Amini, in police custody.>>

<<An Iranian Family Rocked by Death and Incarceration of two Brothers
The Bahramian family from the city of Semirom, in the central Iranian
province of Isfahan, has faced increasing pressure from security
agencies for months. One of its members, Morad, was killed by security
forces during protests in the city in mid-November. His brother Fazel
has not been officially charged since he was taken into custody on
January 1, and his family has since been unable to see him. Based on the
information obtained by IranWire, government institutions are
threatening the family to link the man to the alleged death of a member
of the paramilitary Basij force for the sole purpose of exerting
pressure on the Bahramians, a respected family in Semirom.
Everything Started on November 16
The Bahramians' ordeal started on November 16, when Semirom was hit by
angry protests against the Islamic Republic. Morad, a truck driver, had
just arrived in the city when he noticed his teenage son among the
demonstrators. He was shot dead at around 6 p.m. as he tried to prevent
special forces which had been deployed to suppress the protesters from
reaching his son and his classmates. As tensions escalated in Semirom
over the deaths of Morad and several other people, the security forces
handed over Morad's body to his family on November 18 for burial.
Meanwhile, security agents started to exert intense pressure on Morad's
relatives in a bid to force them to cooperate. The family was not
granted access to the CCTV footage of the alleged killing, and the
camera's owner was detained.
40 days later
Semirom was rocked by clashes between demonstrators and security forces
on December 22, which marked the 40th day since the death of Morad and
protesters.
....
Pressure intensifies
....
The family is constantly under psychological pressure to remain silent,
with the government threatening Fazel with the death penalty. Months
after the alleged killing, the kind of bullet used on the Basij member
remains unknown.>>

<<Wave of Home Searches against Kerman Baha'is
Iranian intelligence forces have launched a wave of house searches
against Baha'is in the southern city of Kerman in an apparent escalation
of recent crackdowns by the authorities on the Baha'i community. Kerman
Intelligence Department agents searched the homes of Nasrin Dowlat and
Hedayat Hakimian on Thursday, seizing their electronic devices,
including mobile phones, laptops, and tablets, without accusing the
Baha'i citizens of any specific charges. Hakimian blindfolded and
handcuffed, though later released, and the homes of several other
Baha'is in Kerman, including Pouran Zand, Soroush Kholosi, Haydeh Fatahi
and Milad Misturi have also been searched. IranWire reported yesterday
that Pouran Zand went into a state of shock and lost consciousness
during the search of her home. The agents had presented a warrant to
search the house, confiscating various items including mobile phones,
movies, CDs and books. The Baha'i community in Iran has faced
persecution and discrimination since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, with
the government inflicting arbitrary detentions, confiscation of
properties, denial of livelihoods and access to higher education, and
constant official hate speech. In July last year, a crackdown on Iranian
Baha'is began with the arrest of Mahvash Sabet, Fariba Kamalabadi, and
Afif Naimi, followed by dozens of other arrests and trials, and the
destruction of several homes.
The detained Baha'is are often charged with <propaganda against the
system,> <gathering and collusion with the intention of committing a
crime,> <acting against the security of the country,> and <membership in
an illegal group,> as well as the capital crime of <spreading corruption
on earth."> >>

<<Iran's Islamic Republic Claims to <Protect> Women with New Bill
The bill was initiated around 12 years ago and was repeatedly sent back
and forth between the parliament, the government and the judiciary for
reviews. Now that its general outline has been approved, many supporters
of women’s rights believe that it has deviated from its original goals.
The drafters of the bill claim that one of its most important goals is
to criminalize certain misogynic and <wrong> traditions. According to
the media outlets affiliated with the government, the bill will help
protect <women's privacy> against official bailiffs, will allow them to
ask for a <judge's permission> to leave the country if the husband does
not allow it, will punish a husband who throws his wife out of their
home and will criminalize force marriage or divorce.
<Honor> Killings
However, legal scholar Pegah Banihashemi tells IranWire that the bill
does not address some of the important issues affecting Iranian women,
inclu-ding domestic violence and <honor> killings. In such killings,
Banihashemi points out, the family usually forgoes qisas (retribution),
and, if the murderer is the father, he escapes punishment. Article 29 of
the bill's Chapter 4 states that, in cases where the killer is not
subjected to qisas, he will be sentenced to 10 to 15 years in prison if
the killing was planned and to five to 10 years otherwise. Currently,
such a killer is punished by a sentence of two to 10 years in prison for
<disrupting public order,> Banihashemi says. <The new bill has only
added the idea of 'prior planning,' which increases the punishment to 10
to 15 years, whereas earlier the intention was to impose long prison
sentences such as 25 years to punish 'honor' killings. Therefore, the
change that this bill would bring about is not really significant.>
