Report Is Questionable
Mashreghnews, citing Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani, is reporting the house arrest of opposition leaders Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi
Karroubi is partially lifted. The hardline news site also cites
people close to Karroubi as saying that he is not under house arrest
anymore and only a team of “body guards” protects him. Mashreghnews report is
not yet verified by other sources. (
UPDATE: Golnaz Esfandiari, editor of Iran blog
Persian Letters, twitted that a journalist close to opposition leader Mehdi
Karroubi says that Mashreghnews report on lifting the house arrest of Karroubi
and Mousavi is “a lie.” Esfandiari adds that the hardline websites have made
similar false claims in the past.

ReplyDeleteLets get this clear,these people are REGIME SPONSORED "opposition leaders".
They are not the real opposition against the theocracy of mullahs.
Revolutions always end up consuming their children. It's all so blatantly Animal Farm.
