Iran judiciary chief criticizes Ahmadinejad
TEHRAN, Aug. 9 (MNA) – Judiciary chief Ayatollah Sadeq Larijani made a strong criticism against President Ahmadinejad, saying it is expected that the president use a decent language and be fair in making judgments.
He said on Saturday, the day marking Journalist Day, some unfair statements were made against the Judiciary which “unfortunately” the president also took part in those discussions.
Larijani said it was said that Judiciary halts the issue of releasing jailed journalists or that a journalist is sentenced for writing something or that he is brought to court for many days and months.
It is not “so unexpected” if a reporter says an unrealistic story while it is not expected from the president, the Judiciary chief noted.
He said Judiciary is independent since judges are independent in issuing rulings.
“Our path is law,” he insisted.
He also said there should be no room for insults in the society.
