Iranian students gather outside Tehran University in Iran during a protest
Sunday, July 11, 1999. The protest was sparked by a police assualt Friday
on the campus dormitory after months of tension between Islamic hard-liners
and allies of the reformist President Mohammad Khatami. The protesters
demanded the punishment of those behind the Friday assult, who were apparently
backed by government hard-liners. (AP Photo/IRNA)
