Araki, Member of the Assembly of Experts: Photographing Criminals in Public is Not Forbidden

Araki, a member of the Assembly of Experts, says photographing a criminal in public is not forbidden

Mohsen Araki, a representative of the Assembly of Experts and a member of the Expediency Discernment Council, addressed the incident involving a mother and a cleric at a clinic in Qom

He stated that taking a photo of a specific person is an invasion of their privacy, but if someone commits a crime in public, photographing them is not forbidden. In fact, taking a photo of them is even obligatory under the principle of enjoining good and forbidding wrong.

He continued by saying that the claim made by some that photographing this woman is forbidden stems from a lack of understanding of jurisprudence. We do not expect such statements from those who should speak based on principles.
