AP: Iran's first vice president is facing corruption charges and will have to stand trial, the judiciary said Monday. Conservative lawmakers have openly accused First Vice President Mohammad Reza Rahimi of financial corruption in recent months, but this was the first confirmation of charges against him. Rahimi has denied the charges and threatened to sue his accusers. The case is the latest jolt at the highest levels of Iran's government. In a separate development last week, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad fired his foreign minister and appointed the country's nuclear chief in his place without explaining the reasons for the abrupt change >>>

It is better than hearing a student received a harsh sentene or something!

by statira on Thu Dec 23, 2010 01:08 PM PSTke migan hamineh. Rahbar khamenei's 30 billion personal account is not theft, but perhaps they call someone who steals a pen a thief or corrupt. Maybe one of the reason he was called corrupt is because he did not steal as much as others. Inam faghat aftabeh dozara migirand.

guys, enough is enough. study. think, then talk
by tabriz_balasi on Thu Dec 23, 2010 10:40 AM PSTlet's not jump into opinions. most of us don't know what we're talking about. i'm the first one to admit. these guys (ahmadinejad and co.) are more dangerous and more intelligent and more prepared than we give them credit for. we are no match to their efforts. we are pathetic, including the reformists in iran that lost everything. forget about the opposition outside, they are a joke, not even a joke because they're not even funny. we will have no say in iran's affairs if we don't wake up now and find out the truth and act upon that truth, even if it means self-sacrifise... Just listen to this tape from youtube. Most of you can't even digest what is happening in iran; what is taking place; there has been a shift; a shift in the system of IR; i don't care if you hated IR from beginning; hate won't bring us anything good; IR no longer represents the people nor does it represent islam. in other words it is neither repbulic nor islamic. listen to this tape carefully, if you fully don't understand this tape, then please don't spew trash, save yourself time, go study and come back and say something constructive. please listen to this tape, it is highly important to understand who is controlling iran right now:
//www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQlxlF4lU-k
let's not under estimate our enemies; we are weak and helpless; they are smart and resourceful; we such; we have no theories on how to help iran; we only repeat none-sense that we hear such as freedom and democracy; i am not saying freedom and democracy are not good, in fact they are the best concepts ever; but it is not as easy as just using these terms as slogans. people wake up, make yourselves better, stronger, and smarter if you want to fight the fight; no insults, no cheap talk, only intelligent act with love.
by the ways, there are more parts to this audio by the same person, on youtube. we need to study our enemy in order to defeat it, hate and insults won't do the job unfortunately,
trust Allah, take steps based on little you know, he was help you to know more, and take firmer steps towards good against evil.
Corruption, another area Islamist regime is beating Shah's.....
by Roozbeh_Gilani on Thu Dec 23, 2010 09:13 AM PSTregime hands down.
From astronomical stolen money in islamist regime's leadership and their families swiss and london bank accounts, to the fake qualifications. At least in Pahlavi era, the thives in charge had real PhD's, not faked ones or the ones given out by order or out of fear of "supreme thief" himself!

All the King’s Men!!!
by Demo on Thu Dec 23, 2010 08:48 AM PSTAll the King’s (“Faghih”) men are the same!! They sometime play as “foes” against each other to keep the masses “distracted” & to make their master “entertained.” AN is A “Nothing” but a “Hoax” in the Emperor’s court. Except for the “publicly” killings/slaughterin of defenseless in the streets' protests & for the executions/torturing of the political prisoners, AN’s “soldiers” have yet to bring a single “crooked” to the so called justice after more than 6 years of his acting as a president!!!!
Why Ahmadi wants it under wraps?
by kazem0574 on Thu Dec 23, 2010 07:08 AM PSTOh sorry, I meant Dr Ahmaghinejad".
Past US presidents have also tried to cove-rup stuff by people close to them. Remember Irangate ? and other examples.
There is very good chance that Mr President's men were taking care of Mr President (backhanders) and he does not want it to surface.

by No Fear on Thu Dec 23, 2010 05:09 AM PSTDr. Ahmadinejad has repeatedly said that the judiciary must present any proof and allow rahimi to defend himself in court as soon as possible.
//www.asriran.com/fa/news/150252/تأکید-احمدینژاد-بر-رسیدگی-به-پرونده-رحیمی-و-پرهیز-از-چماق-کردن-آن-بر-سر-دولت
But isn't it ironic or strange that the Judiciary has been blocking all corruption cases against many MPs , one of the Larijani's brother, Rafsanjani's son etc , and has publicly accused one of Ahmadinejad's deputies without any trial or court?
I really hope Rahimi goes to trial and be charged and be given a chance to defend himself ( If there is any truth to what that stupid MP started ). Let it be another one of Ahmadinejad's soldiers who shall be sacrificed so the taboo of charging a government figure with corruption would be broken forever.
We will wait for our turn.
