1999-2001: In Iran, pro-reform newspapers critical of the conservatives in government are shut down for press-law violations.
In addition to newspapers being shut down, several writers and publishers are jailed as a result of the violations. In the late 1990s, though liberals under President Khatami control the executive branch of government, religious conservatives control the legislative and judicial branches.
