The managing director of a real estate company in Iran is facing serious problems as he was arrested for handling the transfer of an apartment to a dog and even a case file is being filed against him for “insulting the morals of users”!

The investigation against him began “after the broadcast of a video depicting the signing of a contract for the transfer of an apartment to a dog by a real estate company in western Tehran,” according to a police press release cited by ISNA news agency.

In the video, which has been widely circulated on social networking sites, a couple states that they want to write an apartment to their dog, Chester – a Shih Tzu -, in the absence of heirs.

In the footage, the small white dog, on the broker’s desk, signs the contract with the help of a woman, who directs him to leave his paw print on the document.

“On Saturday morning, the owner of the company was arrested by the police and his office was closed by order of a judicial authority,” Tehran’s deputy chief prosecutor, Reza Tabar, was quoted as saying by Mizan, an Islamic justice news website. Democracy.
