Iran’s parliament has published a list of 24 violations they accuse Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of committing and requested the judiciary to pursue the cases, a move that appears to be aimed at thwarting Ahmadinejad's plans for a return to politics.

Some of the more serious cases appear to be accusations that his administration used government-subsidized exchanged rates for the import of luxury cars, a rate that is reserved for the purchase of vital goods, involvement in an attack on speaker of parliament Ali Larijani during his speech in Qom in February 2013 and the illegal borrowing of money through the Central Bank.

The report, which was commissioned by parliament’s Article 90, was published on the official website of Iran’s parliament, the Islamic Consultative Assembly News Agency. Given the tone and content of the introduction to the numbered table of alleged violations, there is a political motivation behind its publication regarding concerns about Ahmadinejad’s desire to return to politics.

“He had not yet wiped the sweat from his face when his media supporters began to work for his return to politics once again,” the lead of the report read, with an accompanying picture showing a contemplative Ahmadinejad looking out of the window, with his reflection looking back at him.
