Supreme Leader: Three branches of gov't must uphold law and order

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, Jan 9, IRNA -- Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei said on Saturday that the three branches of government are expected to fulfill their obligation to uphold law and order.

The Supreme leader made the remarks in a meeting with thousands of devoted people from the Holy City of Qom.

The Supreme Leader said that the people have made it clear that they expect the three branches of government to restore law and order citing the nationwide rallies to condemn the riots occured on Ashura Day.

"The rallies Iranian people held nationwide on December 30 should be regarded as a final ultimatum for all."

The Supreme Leader said that the three branches of government clearly observed the nation's call to deal with the rioters and corrupt people on earth and it is among the responsibilities of the country’s officials to take timely action to this effect.

The Supreme Leader said that the nationwide rallies will be registered in the history of the Islamic Revolution.

The bullying powers and anti-religious people try to get fish from troubled waters in order to attain their sinister goals but the conspiracy was thwarted by the timely presence of people in the scene, the Supreme Leader said.

Highlighting the current developments in the country, the Supreme Leader said the massive presence of people in the scene should be regarded as blessings from the God Almighty.

"From early stages of the Islamic Revolution, the bullying powers and their allies try to hatch plots in various forms."

Before and after the country’s presidential elections the role of US, Britain and Zionist’s affiliated propaganda system is quite obvious which should be taken into consideration, said Ayatollah Khamenei.

Iranian nation and courage of their youth are the main obstacle on the way of enemies, said the Supreme Leader.

The Supreme Leader urged people from all walks of life and the youth, in particular, to exercise vigilance in order to take timely action to thwart the plots of the global arrogance.

Enemies try to mastermind various plots to hinder other nations from hearing voice of Iranian nation because they fear the Iranian voice will enlighten other nations, the Supreme Leader said.

The Supreme Leader advised the officials to carry out their duties and seriously deal with those masterminding the plots.

"The aim behind recent events in the country was to harm the country’s economic and scientific developments."

No government in the world is able to bring to streets tens of million of people in 48 hours to back its policies, said Ayatollah Khamenei.

"Iranian nation is united and all officials should serve them."
