The head of Iran's judicial system, Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Ejei, has issued a stern warning regarding the exchange of information with countries considered enemies of the state.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that during a speech on Thursday, the official stated that sharing location data and other forms of information exchange can be directly classified as hostile cooperation.
"A person who sends an address or location to the enemy has not committed a minor act. Such actions are of a serious nature and must not be underestimated," Mohseni-Ejei noted. He further emphasized that any activities in cyberspace that assist an adversary must be strictly monitored and legally evaluated as potential acts of espionage or treason.
This statement comes amid heightened regional tensions and a series of high-profile security incidents within Iran. The Iranian judiciary has historically maintained a hardline stance on national security, frequently equating unauthorized data sharing or digital communication with foreign entities as a threat to the Islamic Republic's stability. In recent years, Tehran has significantly tightened its oversight of cyberspace, implementing stricter regulations to monitor digital footprints and prevent the flow of sensitive information to international intelligence agencies.
