In fact, what has imposed this deep crisis on the country is the result of financial mismanagement, budgetary shortcomings, and also the instability in the banking system that has exacerbated the ongoing economic issues in Iran. The budget, which is meant to be allocated for the endless expenses of numerous parallel institutions, increases each year, without any consideration for the financial indiscipline of these institutions. Ultimately, this mismanagement leads to extensive money printing by the government, a budget that neither goes into investments nor infrastructure!&#8221;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold; text-align: justify;\">UPDATE: 1:30 P<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold; text-align: justify;\">M CET<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Growing Tensions in Iran as Regime Handles Inmate&#8217;s Murder and Funeral<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-311257 size-medium\" title=\"javad rouhi iran\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/javad-rouhi-iran-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"javad rouhi iran\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/javad-rouhi-iran-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/javad-rouhi-iran-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/javad-rouhi-iran-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/javad-rouhi-iran-696x391.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/javad-rouhi-iran.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Following the death of the political prisoner Javad Rouhi in prison, the clerical regime has taken extraordinary security measures to bury his body secretly in a village near Amol.
