Issue of Freedom about Iranian Press

Iran: Reformers(1) and conservatives(2) are disagreeing strongly about how much freedom(3) the Iranian press should have. The justice(4) system has denounced(5) a report from Parliament. The report says arresting writers and trying them in courts without juries【陪审团】is illegal(6). The dispute(7) follows the arrest of four major writers.
