Communique

"Dear compatriots, sisters and brothers: pursuant to the Revolutionary Justice’s seizure of illegal publications that are connected to imperialist groups, we now see that innocent children are used for the dissemination of the above publications. Through this statement, we warn all our dear compatriots, fathers and mothers, whose children have fallen prey to the objectives of such groups that should their children be arrested in connection to the sales of, or cooperation with, such publications, they will serve a prison term of three to six months, and under no circumstance will any consideration be given to any inquiries by [their] parents. Moreover, all Guards of Revolutionary Committees who witness such illegal activity are duty bound to arrest those who sell such illegal publications and turn them over to the Chief Islamic Prosecutor, located at Qasr Crossroads [in Tehran]."
