Chaharshanbe Suri, The festival of Fire in Iran begins on the evening Tuesday 16 March. Ahmad-Reza Radan the Deputy Commander of the Police in Tehran has said: We have had meetings with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and [paramilitary] Bassij are patrolling various parts of Tehran and across the country. He also warned people against various forms of protest, including creating traffic and honking, saying: We are very sensitive with regards to the probability of streets, squares, and junctures becoming limited by vehicles and pedestrians. These people will definitely be arrested and there is coordination with the judiciary so that anyone who blocks roads would have their car confiscated during the holidays. Certainly there are not a lot of these kinds of people. Video and text source: http://irannegah.com/Video.aspx?id=1689
