Tehran: demonstrations by customers of Saipa vehicle manufacturer

In Tehran, angry customers of Saipa, an Iranian vehicle manufacturing company, held demonstrations in front of the headquarters of the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Commerce. The protesters are demanding the delivery of their purchased vehicles, which have been delayed for more than a year. Some of the customers of Saipa made their purchases in 2016 and have not yet received their vehicles.
Protests over undelivered purchases and hiking prices of Saipa have been ongoing for several months. Saipa is one of Iran’s largest auto manufacturers and a publicly traded company. Its main shareholder is an investment company owned by the Ministry of Industry, Mines and Commerce. That’s why the customers are regularly protesting in front of the ministry’s headquarters.

Tehran: Protests by customers of Sekeh Samen in front of the Justice Ministry office

Elsewhere in Tehran, the customers of Sekeh Samen, an online trading platform for precious metals, gathered in front of the offices of the justice ministry and protested to the plundering of their wealth by this state-approved company.
Sekeh Samen started work in 2016, providing tools for online trading of precious metals. The company had been widely promoted by the Gold and Jewelry Union, a government organization that oversees the trade of precious metal. But in August, the company stopped providing services, claiming it was conducing technical maintenance.
The company never brought back its trade instrument online and didn’t return the funds of the people who had purchased from its website. Thousands of Iranians have made purchase from the website, and many are now regularly holding demonstrations, demanding their deposits returned and the people behind the scheme brought to justice.

Mashhad: protests by customers of Caspian financial institution

In East of Iran, a group of customers of the notorious Caspian Credit Institution held demonstrations in Mashhad and protested to the theft of their wealth and investments by the company. The protesters held banners which read, “They stole our money, your turn is next compatriot,” “Where is my money,” “We won’t stop until we reclaim our rights.”
Caspian is one of several financial institutions that were established with help and backing of regime officials and the Revolutionary Guards. These institutions absorbed billions of dollars from Iranian people with promises of providing quick return on investments. But in 2017, Caspian and four other credit institutions filed for bankruptcy, taking investors’ money with them.
Since then, the customers of these institutions have been regularly protesting and demanding the return of their investments. The protesters hold the government accountable for the current situation and know that governement officials were complicit in the fraud scam.
