    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Iranian opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi
    and reformist former President Mohammad Khatami on Sunday blasted
    the trials of people arrested in post-election demonstrations,
    CNN reported.

    Those on trial had been tortured into confessions, Mousavi said in a
    statement posted on his Ghalam News Web site. "They have been stepped
    on so severely that they would have confessed to anything else,
    had they been instructed to do so," Mousavi said.

    Nearly 100 Iranians arrested in the aftermath of the disputed June 12
    presidential elections went on trial Saturday. In addition, another
    10 people went on trial Sunday.

    Meanwhile, Hojatoleslam Mohammad Taghi Rahbar, a member of parliament's
    Judicial Commission, on Sunday accused Mousavi and Khatami of being
    the main leaders of the recent disturbances.

    "A complaint ... regarding the extremist and destructive behavior
    of Mousavi has been handed to the judiciary and we hope that the
    judiciary would take up this case quickly," he said.
