Esmail Kawsari is once more beating the drums for the prosecution of Mir Hosein Mousavi. This insistence, added to Kawsari’s important public position (he is the Vice President of Parliament’s

Commission for Foreign Affairs and National Security) might presage a new stage in the repression–an attack on Mir Hosein Mousavi himself.

The Vice President of the National Security Commission of the Islamic Consultative Council said, “Mir Hosein Mousavi’s actions and behavior after the presidential elections indicate that he is intent on overthrowing the sacred Islamic Republican System.”
Esmail Kawsari emphasized in an interview with IRNA, “Perhaps Mir Hosein Mousavi did not at first intend to overthrow the Islamic Republican system, but by taking the course of law-breakers and riot-inciters, he has shown that he is inclined toward this.”
He continued, “Mir Hosein’s insistence on law-breaking and fleeing from the law has been conscious, and he must retreat from these acts of his. Whenever anyone, anywhere does something negative, he must anticipate the consequences.”
This representative of the Islamic Consultative Assembly added, “I believe that people like Mehdi Karoubi and Mohammad Khatami should be tried alongside Mir Hosein Mousavi and be punished in accordance with their deeds. They, too, played an important and decisive role in the recent riots and disturbances.”
Kawsari said, “These three people must be tried in a proper court for the crime of taking measures against national security and wrecking the quality of the sacred Islamic Republican system and be turned over to the law. This important task can demonstrate the system’s strength and firmness.”
The Vice President of the National Security Commission of the Islamic Consultative Council added, “Those who act outside the law’s framework and put society’s security in danger with their illogical and riotous behavior must answer for this behavior and deeds of theirs.”
In conclusion, he recalled, “The country’s judicial branch must treat scofflaws with severity. Such behavior can prevent future expected riots.”
