Fatemeh Karoubi, Mehdi Karoubi’s wife: I should feel sorry for the country and its government that can’t even tolerate the only breathing apertures of press to critique.

According to the report by SahamNews, following the attack of a group of thugs and militia to the residence of Mehdi Karoubi and causing problems for his family and neighbours, Fatemeh Karoubi, Mehdi Karoubi’s wife, issued an open letter to Iranian nation.

In her letter, Fatemeh Karoubi warns that the fundamentalist totalitarian movement that Imam Khomeini was worried about their infiltration in the government system, after having come to power, is now trying to use any opportunity to slaughter the progressive principles of the constitution and eliminate devotees to the Islamic Republic. She adds that the totalitarians not only do not tolerate political activists who believe in reform within the constitution but also try to establish their way of complete rule over the government by using the power of those that even minimum freedom has no place in their minds.

In continuation of her letter, Fatemeh Karoubi says that she is sorry that the law is forgotten in the country and the totalitarian movements tolerate no one not even her husband (two term speaker of the parliament and two times presidential candidate) and he is attacked on the rally commemorating the victory of the revolution and on the same day her son gets arrested without a reason and get insulted while the general attorney claims no knowledge of the fact despite him having been detained in part in one the police stations where his cell phone was still there until a few days ago.

Fatemeh Karoubi continues that she feels sorry for the country as on Sunday a group of unknown thugs attacked the building where they live in a rental apartment with tomatoes and eggs and terrorized the neighbours. She reminds that Mehdi Karoubi is used to fighting for justice and will not leave the scene because of the empty insults of a group of known individuals.

She continues that she also feels sorry for the country and its government can’t even tolerate the only breathing apertures of press to critique and close down her weekly magazine Iran-Dokht that had only received two notices over its 9 years of publication which were resolved. She adds that Iran-Dokht weekly was not closed down because of any complain or crime but rather because of political reasons.

She also adds that she feels sorry because Iran-Dokht weekly was closed down over the recommendation of Mohammad Ali Ramin who does not believe in freedom at all and had called their home a couple of days ago and threatened them with offensive language that if Mehdi Karoubi was living in any country he was executed.

At the end of her letter, Fatemeh Karoubi warns Mohammad Ali Ramin and his like-minded allies that they can never slaughter an idea and ideas will always live and such illegal and unusual behaviours are doomed.
