The comment was posted on the website of Mohammad-Taqi Karrubi, one of the clerics sons. The website report said Yasser Khomeini made the remarks while visiting with Karrubi’s other son, Ali, shortly after Ali’s release from detention. Ali had been arrested February 14, the day of the last major anti-regime protest.
Mohammad-Taqi Karrubi quoted the grandson of the regime’s founder as saying he hoped the new year would be one in which “the rule of law based on prudence and reflection becomes the basis for dealing with political activists and the public in general.”
