A look at Iranian newspaper front pages on Dec. 22

IFP has taken a look at the front pages of newspapers on Monday and picked headlines from 13 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy. Tuesday is a public holiday in Iran, our next Look at Iranian newspaper front pages will appear on our website on Wednesday.

News about the passing of veteran actor Morteza Ahmadi appeared on the front pages of a small number of newspapers that appeared on newsstands on Monday. (In light of the fact that Sunday and Tuesday are public holidays in Iran, most dailies decided to skip Monday too.) Also in the headlines was a decision by the Central Bank to increase the amount of interest banks pay customers on 6- and 9-month accounts. And reformist dailies covered the comments of Imam Khomeini’s grandson on the fight against large-scale corruption.
