The judicial system declared the language training center approved by the French embassy illegal

Iran's judiciary has declared the Sialf Language Education Center "illegal" and sealed it.

Sialf was one of the oldest institutions of French-language education, and the embassy of that country mentioned it as the only approved authority.

The judicial authority stated: "This center misused a language study degree to implement anti-Iranian-Islamic cultural projects and against national security, and tried to identify and network and facilitate the departure of the elites from the country."

According to the judicial authority, this language training center "followed illegal activities and actions and outside of French diplomatic practice, an illegal center affiliated with the same embassy operated under the auspices of foreign language training."

The judicial system says that the French embassy refused to receive permission despite warnings.

The tension in diplomatic relations between the two countries rose after Iran expelled two employees of the French embassy. As a countermeasure, the French government asked two employees of the Iranian embassy in Paris to leave the country. In September 1403, two buildings of the "German Language Training Institute" in Tehran, which organized the official exams of the "Gothe Institute" in Iran, were sealed.

At the time, the judiciary said: "Two branches of illegal centers affiliated with the German government, which committed a large number of illegal acts and extensive financial violations by violating the laws of the country, were closed by order of the judicial authority."
