Why Former TV Presenter's Video Does Not Prove Bahonar's Claims Are False?

Mohammadreza Bahonar, member of the Expediency Discernment Council and former Iranian parliamentarian, has recently claimed that Zeinab Abotalebi, the presenter who, on the "Enteghame Sakht" program on Ofogh TV in 2018, said that those who do not like such conditions and beliefs should gather their things and leave Iran, has herself now left Iran.

Mohammad Reza Bahnar, a member of the Expediency Recognition Council and a former member of the Islamic Council, has recently claimed that Zainab Abutalebi, the same host who in 2018 told the people who do not like such conditions and beliefs to gather and leave Iran in the program "Severe Revenge" of the Eqov network, has now left Iran herself.

According to Ambassador Arjan's report, Ambassador Arjan's site wrote: After the publication of these statements, Ambassador Arjan published his refutation in a telephone conversation with Zainab Abutalebi. In this interview, Abu Talebi categorically denied the claim that he left the country and said that he is in Iran. He also announced that he plans to take legal and judicial action against the publishers of what he considers to be spreading rumors and fake news.

Many media also published the same denial, quoting Ambassador Arjan. But the point is that apparently in today's media environment, despite the expansion of social networks, the publication of a telephone denial is not enough for many followers of this story. They want, in addition to denying this claim, a new picture or video of Abu Talebi that shows his presence in a specific place in Iran, for example Tehran, with signs such as Azadi Tower or Milad Tower, at a certain time and date.

Of course, between the publication of these news, pictures of a woman without a hijab were published abroad, which were attributed to Zainab Abu Talebi; But this attribution is rejected and it is said that the images belong to someone else.

In cyberspace, even one of the former broadcasters said that a more objective document than a telephone conversation should be presented to prove this issue; For example, a video that Abu Talebi himself recorded in a certain place, with a background such as Milad Tower or Azadi Tower. In this way, the demand to publish a video proof to prove his presence in Iran has become one of the axes of this media fringe.
