Ahmed Shaheed released his third report on October 11. The report was solely based on claims of 221 people that were questioned from November 2011 to July 2012. Based on those claims Shaheed has accused Iran of human rights violations.
The council dismissed Shaheed's recent report as unreal and void of legal values, and noted that the report has been written at the order of some hostile western states as part of their scenario for increasing psychological pressures and propaganda against the Islamic Republic.
It said that the Islamic Republic has a transparent constitution and comprehensive laws as well as very valuable civil system which will never be undermined by such propaganda tactics as human rights report and by misusing the international tribunes.
Earlier this week, the Iranian Foreign Minister Spokesman Ramin Mehman-Parast said that the UN special rapporteur for human rights has been prepared based on political motivations and is ambiguous.
Mehman-Parast on Saturday dismissed and called Shaheed's report as unsubstantiated, biased, and a repetition of the West's allegations against Tehran.
He said that Shaheed's report has been prepared based on political motivations and is ambiguous.
Shaheed collates the information he uses to write reports accusing Iran of human rights violations from anti-Iranian media outlets and terrorist groups, Mehman-Parast said.
Mehman-Parast also expressed regret over the publication of Shaheed's recent report, saying it seriously undermines the UN's system of human rights protection and lacks legal credibility.
Iranian officials have said before that Ahmed Shaheed has only parroted the unfounded allegations raised by anti-revolution elements against Iran since he had been tasked with accusing Iran.
"Since the very first day that Mr. Ahmad Shaheed was introduced as the United Nations rapporteur (on Iran) we guessed that he was a an American agent, but his later reports assured us that he has been assigned to this mission by the US," Chairman of the Iranian parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Alaeddin Boroujerdi told FNA in October.
"Ahmed Shaheed contacts anti-revolution elements instead of Iranian authorities to receive information and to prepare his reports, and acts in harmony with the Americans when compiling reports (on Iran)," he added.
Shaheed has merely interviewed with foreign-based opposition groups from Iran, Member of the parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Mohammad Hassan Asafari said late in October.
"Did Ahmed Shaheed visit Iran's prisons," he questioned.
He said that the report is full of ambiguities and such reports which are based on assumption of the western governments merely meet the desire of Zionist regime and the US.
Ahmed Shaheed has no experience or record of activities in providing reports and in the past he has acted as Myanmar foreign minister, he said.
