Tea Planters protest leads to clashes in N. Iran

Sporadic clashes rocked, today, the Lahijan-Langerood Hwy located in Northern Iran by the Caspian sea. Hundreds of peaceful Tea planters were attacked by the regime forces as they intended to protest against regime's new policy opening the Iranian market to subsided Indian tea.

Clubs, chains and tear gas were used against the deprived planters and their family members leading in the injuries of several of them. Throwing pieces of stones and setting tires ablaze, in order to cancel the effect of Tear gas, were the planters respond to the brutal attack of the regime forces.

The situation in this usually very peaceful region is very tense and local residents do not hide their total exasperation of the ruling theocracy.

The Islamic republic is known for the non respect and undermining Iranians interests in order to bribe several countries for buying more time for its illegitimate power.
