More forced academic retirements: this time Tabriz University

Following the forced retirement of experienced academics, three university professors from Tabriz University have been faced with forced retirements.

According to an opposition website, Dr Karim Hossein Zadeh Dalir, Dr Firouz Jamali and Mohammad Reza Pourmohammadi have all been forced into retirement.

It is worth noting that these Tabriz University professors had signed a statement in June 2009 endorsing Mir-Hossein Mousavi in his bid to become president.

Students have threatened to go on strike in protest to these politically motivated retirements.
