Press TV: Iran's Judiciary Chief Ayatollah Sadeq Amoli Larijani censures the brutal crackdown of the UK police on protesters in the recent UK unrest, saying Western countries adopt dual attitude on human rights. The recent events in Britain and remarks by British officials who called protesters "thugs and hooligans" were a clear example of the West's “contradictory” attitude to human rights issues, Larijani said on Wednesday. He highlighted the significance of making a revision in ties with Western countries which oppose the Islamic Republic and with those who adopt contradictory stance on political issues and human rights.
