Fars News Agency interviewed Mr Hedayat’ullah Behboudi –the editor of the quarterly magazine published by the Political Study and Research Institute (PSRI) about the series of recent publication against Baha’i Faith in Iran. Mr Behboudi clearly stated that the Political Study and Research Institute will continue to publish articles and information about the Baha’i Faith and Baha’is in Iran. However, all of their previous publications have been found to be both untrue and misleading. The Fars News Agency interviewer indicated that all these materials had been prepared with very limited or little to no reference to Baha’i resources. As matter of fact, the majority of articles were prepared using books and/or articles that were written by individuals who had resigned from the Baha’i Faith and were criticising the Baha’i Faith.

The activities of the Political Study and Research Institute are very distressing. By presenting fallacies about the Baha’i Faith they are doing a great injustice to their readers. They continue to breed ignorance that intensifies the persecution of the Baha’is in Iran.
