Iran purges Intelligence Ministry officials

Iranian media say President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has fired at least four senior Intelligence Ministry figures in a purge targeting officials who disagree with the crackdown on the opposition after disputed elections.

 

Hasan Younesi, son of former intelligence minister Ali Younesi, says on his Web site that four deputy ministers were removed because they didn't support allegations reformists plotted a "velvet revolution." (AP)
