End of the Special Case of Rostam Ghasemi in Iran Gate with the Minister’s Resignation

End of the Special Case of Rostam Ghasemi in Iran Gate with the Minister’s Resignation. As the first news agency, Iran Gate, while monitoring the developments related to the Ministry of Roads, Housing, and Urban Development moment by moment after Rostam Ghasemi took on the ministerial position of this major ministry, was able to be the first to report the decision to arrest Ghasem Makarem Shirazi, the senior assistant and special inspector of the minister, based on its reliable news sources.

Iran Gate also revealed the second wave of arrests and summonses in this ministry due to widespread corruption. For example, our detailed report on the summons and travel ban of the Deputy Minister Eslami, as well as the interrogation of Ali Jafari, the Minister’s advisor and Director General of the Ministerial Office, were part of the reports and news related to this case.

However, Iran Gate’s exclusive interview with Rostam Ghasemi’s stepson and the publication of some exclusive documents related to his cases also played a significant role in exposing the behind-the-scenes of this chaotic market and economic corruption nest.

According to our exclusive and reliable news from our sources, Rostam Ghasemi will resign within the next forty hours, and for a while, this ministry will be managed by a caretaker until Nikzad is eventually introduced to the parliament as the minister.

The end of this special case, which was pursued with the aim of informing and of course fighting corruption, seems promising with Rostam Ghasemi’s resignation. However, certainly, the problems of this ministry will neither end nor decrease with the arrival of Nikzad, who also has a history in this position, because he, too, due to his history of nepotism and weak performance in the Mehr Housing Project, might only add to the problems.

The proper administration of the Ministry of Roads, Housing, and Urban Development, which consists of two ministries, is only possible with the presence of a specialist who has a team suitable for the challenges and issues of the ministry’s missions, not with such appointments and political tribalism.
