Iran's Ali Khamenei urges judiciary to fight corruption
[AlArabiya] Iran’s supreme leader on Tuesday called on judicial authorities to fight corruption in the country, a statement on his website said.

"The issue of fighting corruption should be taken seriously; there is corruption," Ali Khamenei
...the very aged actual dictator of Iran, successor to Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini...
, who has the final say in major state policies, said during a meeting with judicial officials.

Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
is among the most corrupt countries in the world, ranking 150th out of 180 in Transparency International’s Corruption Perceptions Index for 2021.

"In the judiciary, in the executive branch or elsewhere, there are some structures that naturally create corruption; those structures have to be broken down," Khamenei said.

In September 2020, Iran condemned former top judiciary official Akbar Tabari to 31 years in prison for corruption, one of the heaviest sentences against a former official in the Islamic republic.

Iran has been mired in economic crisis since 2018 when the United States under then president Donald Trump
...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons......
unilaterally withdrew from a nuclear deal and began imposing sweeping sanctions on America’s arch foe.

Last month, demonstrations against the rising cost of living and corruption were held in several Iranian cities.
