According to <em>Kayhan<\/em>, Esfandiari was held for over six weeks without her family\u2019s knowledge before the Paris prosecutor\u2019s office issued a statement on April 12.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But <em>Kayhan<\/em> uses the case not to call for legal aid or diplomatic engagement \u2014 instead, it demands that the regime retaliate with the same tactics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWhy don\u2019t the Foreign Ministry, judiciary, and security agencies use the legal and legitimate right of retaliation?\u201d the editorial asks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The paper proposes interrogating French nationals currently in Iran, and if they refuse to condemn Israel, arrest them for \u201csupporting war crimes.\u201d If imprisonment is not legally feasible, it adds, they should at least be detained and expelled.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iranian?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iranian<\/a> regime aired an interview with Asadollah Assadi, its convicted diplomat <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/terrorist?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#terrorist<\/a>, who was jailed in Belgium for a foiled 2018 bomb plot in Paris.
