Iran ( Iranian officials may end blocking of social networking sites ) Good News

 Tuesday, 08 October 2013   

Iran’s ministry of communication and information technology announced that it is looking at the possibility of ending the restrictions on accessing social networking websites in Iran.

Mohabat News - The ministry issued a statement saying that a special committee is examining the blocking of websites such as Facebook and Twitter and will soon publicize its decision.

The news comes a day after the minister of communication said publicly that there was no plan to allow Iranians to access to Facebook and Twitter. He later announced that his words had been misconstrued.

Access to Facebook and Twitter in Iran is blocked by the government, and Iranian web users can only access them through the use of proxies.

The use of these websites by Iranian President Hassan Rohani and other members of his cabinet has triggered a push toward dropping restrictions against them./zamaneh

Elderly man busted for arranging sex for senior citizens
TOKYO —

Police in Japan have arrested a 70-year-old man over claims he arranged sexual encounters among senior citizens through newspaper adverts soliciting “tea-drinking companions”, police and press reports said.
Kiyohide Kuroda had allegedly been posting classified ads in a Tokyo newspaper for around a decade before he was taken into custody last week.
Press reports said Kuroda had helped arrange sex among about 1,000 men and 350 women, mostly in their mid-60s, earning some 30 million yen as commission in breach of Japanese prostitution laws.
His small ads for his “San Ai” (Three Loves) club offered to arrange meetings for “tea-drinking companions aged between 40 and mature ages,” the reports said.
The oldest male customer was 88 and the oldest woman was 82.
A spokesman for Tokyo Metropolitan Police said Kuroda’s arrest on Oct 4 came after he separately introduced two women to two men who had asked him over the past month to find sexual partners.
“I recruited tea-drinking companions as I did not wish to give the impression that mine was sex business,” Kuroda reportedly told investigators. “I thought people seeking prostitution understood what it meant.”
