Disappeared statues in Tehran refers to a series of robberies committed during the months of April and May 2010 in Tehran, Iran, when twelve bronze statues of national heroes disappeared from public places for unknown reasons.[1] Tehran officials treated the incidents as theft, while others[who?] have suggested that it may have been a deliberate removal by the government or religious groups. In June 2010, Tehran municipality officials asked the sculptors to remanufacture the sculptures.[2]
Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, who at the time was the mayor of Tehran, stated in an announcement that Iranian police were pursuing the issue.[2][3]
