Iran news in brief, April 6, 2020 Iran: Coronavirus Death Toll Rises to 18,600 in 242 Cities
The People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran announced today, April 5, 2020, that the Coronavirus have fatalities exceeded 18,600 in 242 cities across Iran. In its daily and false report, the regime’s Health Ministry limits the death toll to those victims who have died in hospitals and have tested positive for Coronavirus. In other words, those who have died outside hospitals, especially in rural areas, and those who have not been tested are not included in the official figures. Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran said in this regard: “The regime is terrified of the truth. The criminal decision by (the regime’s Supreme Leader Ali) Khamenei and (his President Hassan) Rouhani to order the people back to work will result in countless victims. Rouhani’s directive to resume ‘business and economic activities’ endangers the health of millions of Iranians. Iran's Regime Prosecutes Doctor for Unraveling Its Cover-Up The Iranian regime has prosecuted a doctor for warning about the coronavirus outbreak. Rahim Yousef-pour from Saqqez in Iranian Kurdistan Province was summoned by judicial authorities. He must report in on Sunday. In a video shared online, Dr. Rahim Yousefpour announced that he was summoned for warning about the coronavirus outbreak in the province. “I warned about Covid-19 a month ago. For this reason, the authorities summoned me eight times. I must appear in court for telling the truth… If you don’t see me again, it’s not because of being infected with coronavirus or a road accident.” Iran: 50 Regime's Economists Warn of Post-Coronavirus Protests Fifty Iranian regime's economists warned the regime’s President about the possibility of protests due to the dire state of the economy after the coronavirus crisis. In a letter to Hassan Rouhani, they said that post-coronavirus economic grievances could spark protests on the outskirts of Iran’s cities. The last round of widespread protests, the result of economic grievances, was in November 2019 after the regime doubled the price of rationed gasoline. In a televised meeting on Sunday, Rouhani said that “low-risk” economic activities would resume in all provinces except the capital from April 11. Businesses would resume work in Tehran on April 18.
