Iran's human rights chief advises France to revise anti-Islamic laws

Secretary of Iranian Judiciary's Human Rights Headquarters here on Saturday advised France to revise its anti-Islamic laws, reacting to that country’s closure of 21 mosques and news on its intention to shut down six more.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Secretary of Iranian Judiciary's Human Rights Headquarters here on Saturday advised France to revise its anti-Islamic laws, reacting to that country’s closure of 21 mosques and news on its intention to shut down six more.

Kazem Gharibabadi made the remarks while reacting to France’s Anti-Extremism and Separationist Laws whose recent implementation has led to the closure of 21 mosques and plans to close six more.

In the western approach the terrorists who are committing crimes in Iran are freedom fighters, but religious freedom in the west equals terrorism, Gharibabadi tweeted.

We ask the French government to revise its laws that ate anti-Islamic and target the educational, prayer centers, and other public places of of 5.5 million Muslim minority of that country.

Last week the French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin in an interview with that country’s BFMT television network said in Islamophobic remarks that out of 99 mosques suspected of having extremist tendencies 21 are closed and inspections on six more mosques are in process.

The BFMT, meanwhile, reported that the mosques that have acted in accordance with the government’s directives are crossed out from the list of the suspected mosques for conducting extremist acts.

This is not the first time that the French government is resorting to antagonistic move against French Muslims and closing their mosques.

The French always resort to the extremism pretext in order to interfere in Muslims’ religious affairs, and although extremism is condemned all over the world, but there are no precise borders for it and it can be interpreted quite waywardly.
