Iran parliament approves bill criminalizing 'hostile' media communications

Iranian parliament anti-infiltration bill hostile media foreign intelligence Revolutionary Courts

The Iranian parliament has approved the general principles of a bill aimed at countering foreign intelligence influence and criminalizing interactions with media deemed hostile to the Islamic Republic. The legislation specifically targets American and Israeli media outlets, as well as organizations financed by those countries. Under the proposed law, participating in discussions or interviews with these designated outlets could result in prison sentences ranging from six months to two years.

For other foreign media, individuals would be required to notify the intelligence ministry prior to any interaction. Unsanctioned contact with foreign embassies, organizations, or non-Iranian institutions could lead to fines and the deprivation of certain social rights. The bill also introduces harsher penalties for economic crimes conducted under foreign supervision and restricts scientific cooperation to a state-approved list of foreign institutions.

Furthermore, the legislation proposes prison terms of up to 30 years for policy or legislative proposals made under the direction of foreign intelligence services that are deemed harmful to Iran’s security or independence. Legal proceedings for these violations would be conducted by Revolutionary Courts. The bill must still undergo a formal review by the Guardian Council before it can be officially enacted into law.
