Tehran, Iran, August 23

By Mehdi Sepahvand –- Trend:

Iran’s security forces have traced, arrested and summoned some 450 administrators of social web pages to headquarters.

The administrators’ activities included ethical security, illegal modeling, or slandering people’s religious beliefs, IRGC’s cyber security website Gerdab reported August 23.

The people used to work in social media such as Telegram, Whatsapp, or Instagram, the report said, adding they had “targeted the foundation of the family with anti-value content.”

The measures followed “an increase in public demand in society to take action against cyberspace criminals,” the message said.
