They also informed the administration of the center that the symposium would be organized on the due day; but only after obtaining written license from the police.
According to Al Mezan's field investigations, the symposium was organized by the Liberation Party on 'Islamic Political Work… Basics and Regulations'.
The administration of the center informed Mr.
