Seal of 3 Sunni publications’ stalls in 25th Int. Book Fair

Iran, Tehran- The authorities of the 25th Tehran International Book Fair sealed display stalls of three Iranian Sunni publishers in final days of the book fair.

“SunniOnline” quoted Kurd Press News Agency reporting that “Sa’adi Sajjadi”, the director of Aras Kurdistan Publication, told the agency, ‘The authorities of the 25th Tehran International Book Fair closed stalls of “Aras Kurdistan Publication”, “Hafedh Abru Publication”, from Khorasan province, and “Eilaf Publication” of Fars province on Thursday morning, May 10, 2012, for 24 hours.’

Sajjadi added more, ‘The authorities of the Tehran International Book Fair had been issuing notifications to us over displaying some books such as Tarikh-e-Siasye Kurd (Political History of Kurd), Amthal-e-Qurani (Qur’anic models by Ibn al-Qayyem) and Deen Souziye Mo’aser (Contemporary Religion-corrode); later on, they sealed our stall. While, these books had been published by legal permission of the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance of Iran.’

The director of Aras Kurdistan Publications underlined that none of the authorities of the Tehran International Book Fair was ready to explain the reason of the closure of Sunnis’ stalls. He told the reporter of Kurd Press News Agency that 1200 domestic publishers and cultural institutes had stalls; the authorities sealed only these three Sunni publishers’ stalls.

It should be noted that the biased authorities of the 25th Tehran International Book Fair refused to provide display stalls to Seddiqi Publication and Farooq-e-A’dham Publication, two prominent Sunni publications of Iran.
