Sporadic clashes in southern Tehran
SMCCDI (Information Service)

Sporadic clashes occurred, yesterday, as hundreds gathered in front of one the Rey's Islamic Mutual Funds companies in order to request the restitution of their assets.
Tens of demonstrators shouted slogans against the regime and its leaders while requesting their deposits. Security forces were quick to rush and smashed the protest action by beating and arresting several demonstrators.
The rumor of the local company's bankruptcy due to the official fraud and the escape of some of the managers has been widely spread in the town. The same cycle of malaise-demonstration-repression is existing, actually, in several other cities, such as, in Esfahan, Hamadan and Kermanshah. An increasing number of Iranians are afraid of the regime's banking and financial institutions by preferring to buy foreign currencies, especially US Dollar and Euro, and gold.
It's to note that Rey is one of the poorest suburbs of Tehran and has been the scene of violent anti-regime protests in the last years. It was, a day, one of the cradles of regime's popular support along with Tehran's other poor districts, such as, Eslam-Shahr, Akbar-Abad and Varamine. _________________ Referendum AFTER Regime Change
