TEHRAN – Qolamhossein Mohseni Ejei, the deputy head of the Judiciary, paid a visit on Wednesday to the Mehr news agency headquarters in downtown Tehran in run-up to the 40th anniversary of the Islamic Revolution.

In talks with Mehr and Tehran Times Director General Ali Asgari, Mohseni Ejei said, “Mehr is twins with the revolution.”

He said, “During the forty years, some figures disembarked from the revolution’s train and stood in front of the system and moved away from the target.”

When Mehr news agency was launched, he said, “We sensed the need for a farsighted, all-embracing news agency to be heard loud and clear inside and outside of the country.”
