Iranian Prosecutor Calls on IRGC to Confront Corruption Amid Economic Strain
What happened
On October 30, Ali Salehi, a Tehran prosecutor, called on intelligence agencies and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to identify and confront what he described as organized gangs promoting corruption. This intervention occurs as the Iranian regime is simultaneously increasing social control, including demanding greater involvement in enforcing compulsory hijab, and facing rising medicine costs and changes to fuel prices.

Why it matters
The calls for anti-corruption action come against a backdrop of shrinking economic capacity within the ruling establishment. Furthermore, the judiciary is expanding its regulatory reach, requiring 28 government institutions to review their performance regarding hijab enforcement, with managers found negligent facing legal action.
