@IFJGlobal, could you please explain to me how the head of the Farsi desk (@IFJFarsi) was chosen? Who voted to @hanifmazrooei to be the head of the desk? Does @IFJGlobal believe in the monarchy system that son can inherit the power from his father?

We know @IFJFarsi's head is @hanifmazrooei, who is also @bbcpersian staff. My question is how he was chosen to be the head as his father was the head? Does he inherit this position from his dad, Rajabali Mazrooei? If no, who voted for him, if yes, can you explain @IFJGlobal why?

.@IFJGlobal & @abellanger49 also needs to explain to Iranians how they have concluded Ruhollah Zam was a 'Propaganda Activist', not a journalist while he was kidnapped by the IRGC and brought back to Iran and then executed. Could you please explain what the logic is?

While @abellanger49 is worried about Julian Assange and the potential harassment against him by the US government if he will be sent to the US, it is so weird that @IFJGlobal believes Ruhollah Zam was 'Propaganda Activist'. Isn't it double standards??

Why there is a double standard in terms of two people from @IFJGlobal (Jullian Assange & Ruhollah Zam) while @abellanger49 has campaigned for Assange? I hope it is not related to Zam's race or because he was against Iran's regime and @IFJFarsi might have interests in the regime!

.@IFJGlobal, I tried to call your number from your website three time today and first two times someone answered and leave the phone on the table without talking. The 3rd time that person didn't even bother to pick up the phone. That's not good at all.

I managed to call @IFJGlobal and they finally answer the phone. The person on the phone said he doesn't know the answer of my question a) Why they call Ruhollah Zam as a "propaganda journalist" b) What was the process to choose the head of @IFJFarsi.

He asked me to call Anthony Bellanger, General Secretary of @IFJGlobal. I called him, and he answered my phone, but when I asked him about the selection process of the head of @IFJFarsi, he hung up the phone and turned it off—the same trick by the politicians.

Now, @IFJGlobal must answer these two questions:
1- Why they called Ruhollah Zam as a "Propaganda Activist' while @pressfreedom called him as a journalist?
2- What was the process to choose the head of @IFJFarsi?

I called @IFJGlobal again and I found they don't have any idea what going is on with @IFJFarsi as they asked me to contact (Rajab)Ali Mazroeei as they believed he is in Iran while he left Iran in 2009 and been living in Belgium in that last 11 years!

.@IFJFarsi has been managed as like a Mafia family by Mazrooei's family (father and son) that they have a close relationship with Iran's regime. This is another statement by an Iranian journalist that shows the potential corruption at @IFJGlobal.

.@IFJGlobal must admit its house is not clean and they need to clean it. By covering up the current mess at @IFJFarsi, and trying to mislead Iranians, they just discredit themselves and shows their org as a puppet of Iran's regime who worries about regime's journalists!

@RadioFarda_Eng, which @IFJGlobal has used as one of the sources to not call Ruhollah Zam as a journalist, announces they believe he is a journalist. It is clear @IFJFarsi has become propaganda of Iran's regime. It's time to clean @IFJGlobal.

https://twitter.com/RadioFarda_/status/1341441318258700293

It seems @IFJGlobal has been trying to fabricate the news that Persian media such as @IranIntl & @RadioFarda_ do not believe Zam was and is a journalist. This is the statement from Iran International. @IFJGlobal stop to be a puppet of Iran's regime.

.@abellanger49, I believe instead of hanging up the phone on me this morning, start to think about news fabrication by your organisation and start to clean your house by starting @IFJFarsi and tell us how @hanifmazrooei became the head after his father?

Another evidence that @IFJGlobal has become a puppet of Iran's regime. @jilabani has confirmed that Ruhollah Zam is a journalist and @IFJFarsi has lied to @IFJGlobal and the world about Zam. Clean your house @IFJGlobal. You have been compromised...

https://twitter.com/jilabani/status/1341483473714995208

Hey @IFJGlobal, this is another person who was a political prisoner in Iran and took an oath that Ruhollah Zam is a journalist. You really need to clean your house and stop to be a puppet of Iran's regime. @IFJFarsi has been compromised by Iran's agents.

And this is the English version of @IranIntl_En response to the fabricated piece of news from @IFJGlobal that Persian media hasn't call Ruhollah Zam as a journalist:

https://twitter.com/IranIntl_En/status/1341502550902792192

And I believe it is the last nail in the propaganda by Iran's regime via @IFJFarsi as @sahamnewsorg has confirmed that Ruhollah Zam used to work as a journalist with this news media organisations. Clean your house @IFJGlobal. #ZamWasAJournalist

.@IFJGlobal, this is another statement from a media outlet in the MENA region. Now, the question is when you will stop to protect Iran's regime and to be a puppet of Islamic Republic? Don't forget, @IFJFarsi has been compromised.

.@IFJGlobal, this is another example that your @IFJFarsi is a corrupted desk that works based on relationship not skillset. You either must clean your house or accept that you have become a puppet of Islamic Republic:
