News in Brief:

When a newspaper becomes the voice of ministry of information!

"Kayhan": ban the internet !

"Kayhan" is a right wing and goverment newspaper in Iran , pro regime and pro ministry of information. It has been said that infact it is a safe heaven for ministries agents.I'm writing this because these people call themselves journalists and yet call the ministry of justice to filter the internet in Iran.Kayhan is fully under the control of Mr. Hosein Shriatmadari , he had a very close tie with Said Emami the master mind in the ministry of information who was behind the killing of political dissidents and writers in Iran which later become known as " The chain murdering " , Said Emami later died suspiciousely by commiting suicide when Akbar Ganji the investigative journalist started writinghis articles in reformists newspaper of the time . Mr. Shariatmadari is also a close friend and buddy with Said Mortazavi the public prosecutor of Tehran and " butcher of independent media " and a suspect and interrogator of Canadian-Iranian photojournalist Zahra Kazemi.

According to "Roozonline" Kayhan usually reports about political prisoners and the regime's critics call this newspaper as " the interrogators paper " . When somone is arrested for political or critical reason this newspaper writes an article and it talks from "an informed source" that for example Mr. Jahanbegloo who is currently in detension because of activities against Islamic Republic has confessed that he was working on a wide network called " the web" for collecting classified information from groups and political, cultural,social and economical activists.

Roozonline:
The "informed source " of Kayhan has added that : Mr. Ramin Jahanbegloo has confessed that he was trying to plan for a "cyber spy net" namely C.E.S in Iran and a group of cybernetics, active Iranian internet runners in Yahoo, Google and the managers of some site that are filtered were organized by him to do this project .
Roozonline writes :"Kayhan newspaper in previous years have wrote articles about the so called confession of Siamak Pourzand, Abbas Abdi , Abdolfatah Soltani and Faraj Sarkouhi ". So Kayhan is a " Scenario making paper ".
Kayhan is definitely embeded with foundamentalists, conservatives and with ministry of information.
