Iran bans paper over article on Charlie Hebdo

TEHRAN: Iran’s judicial authorities have banned a newspaper for publishing a front-page headline allegedly indicating support for French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo.
Mohammad Ghoochani, chief editor of the daily Mardom-e-Emrooz, or Today’s People, is quoted by the semi-official Tasnim news agency as saying his paper has been ordered closed for publishing a front-page story on the French magazine controversy. The article’s headline on Tuesday quoted filmmaker and activist George Clooney as saying “I am Charlie Hebdo.”
