TEHRAN, Nov 5 (AFP) - Some 800 students gathered at a Tehran university
campus Sunday to protest against a five-year jail sentence on leading reformist
Abdollah Nuri, a close ally of President Mohammad Khatami. Some 800 male
and female students rallied peacefully for some two hours at the Allameh
Tabatabai university, denouncing last month's punishment of the former
interior minister and vice-president for spreading "anti-Islamic propaganda"
in his daily Khordad. (Next photo here
