History and profile

Eqbal was a reformist daily of which managing editor was Morteza Fallah.[1][2] It was unofficially affiliated to the leading reformist party, the Islamic Iran Participation Front.[3][4] Karim Arqandehpour was among senior editors of the paper.[5] The paper supported Mostafa Moin in the presidential election in 2005.[6]

Closure

In June 2005, before the presidential election, the paper along with Aftab Yazd published the letter of presidential candidate Mehdi Karrubi to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.[1][7] Upon this incident both papers were banned for one day by Tehran Public and Revolutionary Court on 20 June.[1][8] In fact, two more dailies, namely Etemad, and Hayat-e-No, also published the letter of Karrubi and were banned by the same body.[3] Following the ban Eqbal continued until July 2005 when it was closed down by the Iranian judiciary "for spreading lies and publishing false reports unrelated to Karrubi’s letter."[9]
