Iran, September 24, 2019—As the regime ruling Iran desperately attempts to decrease international pressures and isolation following its attacks on Saudi Arabia’s Aramco oil facilities, protests in cities throughout Iran are causing further concerns for officials and authorities across the boards.
A group of Caspian credit firm clients rallied outside the Iranian regime’s Majlis (parliament) on Monday, September 23, demanding their stolen savings returned. The Caspian credit firm is known to be associated directly to the mullahs’ Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), the regime’s main armed forces that has been designated as a “Foreign Terrorist Organization” by the U.S. State Department.
The plundered creditors provided a number of images from their protest rally.
