Interior ministry assures of healthy elections

Iranian Interior Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najjar stressed on Monday that his ministry which is tasked with holding elections will not allow any individual, group or party to impair the healthy process of the upcoming parliamentary elections in the country.\"With regard to elections, we will endeavor to implement the law exactly and we will not allow anyone to interfere with the elections,\" Najjar told reporters on the sidelines of a gathering of the executive officers involved in the 9th parliamentary elections in Iran. He also underlined the interior ministry\'s willingness to facilitate the process of voting for the people, and said 10% of the voting stations will be equipped with computers for electronic voting. Najjar stressed the necessity for transparent information dissemination in the process of holding elections so that the Iranian people will be updated on the voting events. Earlier this month, Iranian Intelligence Minister Heidar Moslehi had warned that those who staged a sedition plot after the 2009 presidential election in collaboration with a number of western states have once again hatched plots to undermine the country\'s security during the upcoming parliamentary elections, but added that Iranian intelligence forces are fully prepared to foil such plots. Addressing an Expert Assembly session here in Tehran in September, Moslehi said that masterminds and perpetrators of the post-election unrests in Iran in 2009 are seeking to find themselves new allies through both overt and covert actions in an attempt to start another move to strike a blow at the principles of the Islamic Revolution and the Islamic establishment. \"The intelligence ministry enjoys a high level of vigilance and will not allow these movements to derail the Esfand 12 (March 2, 2012) parliamentary election from its normal path,\" Moslehi noted.
