IRAN - Sept. 27 - Revolutionary Guard Blamed For Unrest.


The National Security Council expresses regret over August's unrest in the western city of Khorramabad. 'IRNA' says a report by the National Security Council reported members of the Revolutionary Guards and the volunteer Basij militia were involved in the unrest and legal action should be taken against them. The National Security Council, which is headed by the reformist Interior Minister Abdolvahed Mousavi-Lari, also says that more than 60 police and security officials were injured in the violence. (Earlier August, the reformist government rejected an official judiciary report that laid the blame for the unrest in Khorramabad on the country's large pro-reform student group. The week of unrest began after right wing vigilantes prevented 2 prominent reformists from attending a student meeting in Khorramabad.)
