Mawlawi Abdul Hamid criticized the suspension of university professors
Mawlawi Abdul Hamid, the Sunni Friday prayer leader of Zahedan, criticized the removal or suspension of university professors in Iran in a message he posted on Twitter.
He wrote that the removal or suspension of some university professors is concerning and an attack on the scientific foundations of the country.
He further stated that the adverse consequences of such an ill-considered action will confront our society with problems in various fields. Political disagreements should not lead to encroachment on the domain of science and knowledge or jeopardize the future of this land.
In the months following the anti-government protests in Iran, reports have emerged about the dismissal or suspension of university professors due to protesting or supporting protesting students.
