President Ahmadinejad and his entourage are being attacked from all sides.
The latest attack comes from the parliament.
The parliament, voted to investigate reports claiming that Ahmadinejad's government gave $80 each to around 9 million citizens ahead of the disputed elections.
The money is said to have been distributed as part of the "justice shares," a scheme designed by the government to help poor segments of society.
This was not made public before because of the "sensitivities".
