Iran: Iran: Mirhossein Mousavi calls for peaceful demonstrations
Michael BärJune 17, 2009
Supporters of Iran's defeated presidential candidate Mirhossein Mousavi say they're planning new protests today over disputed election results. Despite the authorities' readiness for a partial recount, they're calling for a fifth day of demonstrations. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was officially declared the winner of Friday's ballot with a 66 per cent majority. Tens of thousands of pro-Mousavi demonstrators marched in Tehran on Tuesday.
