TEHRAN, June 13 (Mehr News Agency) – An official at the Ministry of Higher Education told a group of protesting students on Friday to cooperate with the police in restoring calm and order.

“If you fail to do so, it is likely that those who do not think a lot of you would come to power,” said Zarifian, the ministry’s deputy for students affairs.

 

He also urged the students to bring to an end their meeting so that their gathering is not abused by others.

 

“Otherwise, it will have further dimensions which would not be in your interests,” he warned.
