Hizbullah congratulates Iran's president on vote

Hizbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah sent a letter of congratulation to Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for winning a second term in office, despite cries of voter fraud in the presidential election.

"Your re-election represents a great hope to all the oppressed people, holy worriers and resistance fighters who reject the powers of arrogance and occupation," said the letter, whose text was carried by the group's web site Al-Manar on Sunday. (AP)
