A Case of Major Corruption from Teachers’ Pockets
In days when the tables of all social classes, especially the esteemed educators, are getting smaller and smaller, economic corruptors are diligently plundering. This time, in the Petro Farhang Holding. Saeed Aghanji, editor-in-chief of Iran Gate News Agency and an investigative journalist specializing in corruption, has decoded a case with complex dimensions of financial and ethical corruption. He pointed to the reasons behind some dismissals in a major oil holding belonging to the Teachers’ Fund. In the case of the dismissal of the Petro Farhang Holding manager, the cause must be traced to a house in the Gisha neighborhood. In the dismissal of the managers of Sabalan Petrochemical and Petro Farhang, there is a common story that can be called the ‘Petrochemical Epstein Case.’ Aghanji has announced that he will publish the names and full information of individuals and the comings and goings of Petro Farhang’s subsidiary managers to the house in Gisha. He pointed out the lack of effort by Petro Farhang Holding managers in solving the accumulated loss problem of the country’s methanol chain, which has incurred hundreds of millions of dollars in losses, and speaks of widespread corruption in this group. He refers to individuals who are keen to visit the Gisha house. Aghanji, with sarcasm and a call to action, questions the judiciary and security institutions about what they are really busy with, and whether they can only arrest and imprison protesters and young people who are outraged by injustice and are protesting against widespread corruption, or if they can shoot them in the streets.
