In times of crisis, Iran 's political system is looking for scapegoats — and independent journalists , even journalists who have been living in exile for a long time, are high on their list . At the end of September, Iran's judiciary announced that it had confiscated assets belonging to individuals accused of "cooperation with hostile governments." The measure is part of a previously announced plan targeting around 400 people living abroad, including journalists, activists, artists and athletes, whose assets are to be seized. "The only thing I own in my parents' house in Iran is a bookshelf," says Amir Soltanzadeh.
