Iranian judiciary vows no concessions

Tehran [Iran], January 6: Iran's judiciary on Monday announced a crackdown on protesters that have been on the streets of several cities in the past week demanding change in the country.
"The rioters should know that, while leniency was shown in earlier phases, there will be no more concessions," Chief Justice Gholam-Hossein Mohseni Ejei said, according to the Mizan judicial portal.
He pointed to expressions of solidarity with the protesters from the US and Israeli governments, which he called the "main enemies of our people." Shortly after the protests broke out last week, Iran's government signalled its willingness to engage with the demonstrators, with moderate President Masoud Pezeshkian promising reforms. Those promises did not quell the unrest. Many young demonstrators vehemently reject the Iranian regime as a whole.
