Iranian report: Mousavi's car attacked

Plainclothes men on motorbikes reportedly attack vehicle; car's back window smashed

The car of Iranian opposition leader Mirhossein Mousavi was attacked by "plainclothes men" on motorbikes on Monday and one member of his entourage was injured, the reformist Kaleme website reported.

 

Kaleme said the incident happened when Mousavi was on his way back to Tehran after attending the funeral of leading dissident cleric Grand Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri in Qom. It said the car's back window was smashed in the attack.

 

Kaleme said the group on motorbikes insulted Mousavi and those accompanying him and several times stopped his motorcade and prevented it from resuming its journey.

 

"On the way back from Qom to Tehran before noon ... a group of plainclothes men riding motorcycles attacked the car carrying Mousavi, as a consequence of which one member of Mousavi's entourage was injured," Kaleme said.

 

"One of the assailants shattered the back window of the car carrying Mousavi," Kaleme said, adding that one of the attackers was also injured in the incident.
