Sorry to ask this question in your comment area, I could not find your email address on you site. Can you verify this news that was just annonced by Alireza Meybodi on his morning program, he said he has received the news of arrest of Saeed Mortazavi and Ahmad Reza Radan in Tunisia! If true this could be a jackpot since Mortazavi was involved in the murder of Zahra Kazemi.
I got an answer to my question left earlier, Meybodi must have been confused, in fact the Tunisian prosecutor general and head of police had been arrested not the ones he had named.
