According to the report by Harana correspondence, the news organ of the group of activists of human rights in Iran; today Monday Mordad 11, 1400 S.H. the houses of three Baha’is were destroyed in Roshankouh village, Sari by the governmental organs Mr. Sabetian, Mr. Navid Derakhshan and Mr. Enayati’s houses were destroyed when Mr. Navid Derakhshan and MR. Enayati weren’t present at homes. A source close to these Baha’i citizens said to Harana reporter: “Natural resources office has recently claimed for 14 pieces of land in Roshankouh village to be jungles already and the Baha’is have been active in agriculture and construction grabbing the jungle lands. For this reason, this office has asked for dispossession of these lands while the Baha’i possession goes back to 1342 S.H. before land reforms; that is, 70 years.

The news has been republished by sites related to Baha’ism; of course the news providers were ignorant of the fact that their analyses are contradictory with the news origin.

The news continues: “During the recent years systematic and extensive attempts have been done; so that the Baha’is left the village. While construction has been easily done in the adjacent village where there isn’t any Baha’i. The residents of this village aren’t being given the permit to construct just due to being Baha’is.

Answer:

1)   The Islamic Iran confronts each kind of illegal constructions and destroys and this issue isn’t related to theological tendencies of people.

2)   If it is so, all places possessed by the Baha’is must be destroyed.

3)   If the illegal measures of citizens including Muslims, Christians and Zoroastrians who are the official religions of the country are being confronted, how can be expected that the illegal measures done by the Baha’is. Whose enmity against the system of the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran is quite obvious won’t be confronted!
